My daughter's completely football-____. She plays for a big local team and she ____ herself a couple of months ago. She's a ____ and she ____ shoot when her foot ____ in the ground and she ____ it really ____. It was quite ____ and we were worried she'd be ____ for a long time, but fortunately the ____ showed it wasn't damaged too badly. She spent a week or so ____, feeling sorry ____ herself, but she's more or less back to normal now and ____ again. A few years ago, I was on my way to a meeting when a truck drove into my car. The car was a ____ and I had ____ injuries and spent the next few months ____ in bed, on loads of ____, hardly able to move. I honestly believed I was never going to walk again. In the end, though, after several operations and some intensive physiotherapy, I managed to ____. ____ of a friend, I then ____ and ____ has been incredible. A friend of mine had to have a ____. It started out with her having ____ and being very ____, but the doctor didn't think it was too serious. But then she suddenly got a lot worse and the doctors decided it was ____ and they had to find a donor, like immediately. To be honest, we weren't sure she would ____ because there's usually a waiting list, but luckily they found one in time. They don't really know what caused her to get so ill, but one possibility is it was the ____ she had to use in her job in the parks department. It's impossible to prove ____. Anyway, her body seems to ____ accepted the new liver and she's ____ on the road to recovery, which is the main thing! I read this crazy story online the other day. There was this ____ farmer and she got ____ over by one of her cows and she ____ her head. She didn't seem to be badly injured, but she more or less completely lost her memory. She said that for the next year or so she actually ____ trying to recall things, so she just got really good at living in the moment. The doctors thought she might never get her memory back, but it seems it has slowly started coming back. Even now though, for things like pin codes she has ____ – you know instinctively doing the movement ____ recalling the actual number. I work for a bank, which is incredibly ____. I hardly ever take time off and I usually try and ____ any illness. But a while ago this horrible bug ____ the office and it was so bad I just couldn't ____. I had terrible sharp stomach pains, fever, vomiting, ____. But the worst part of it for me was that I ____ it the day before I ____ to go to Barbados for a holiday. So instead of relaxing for a week on the beach I was ____ at home in bed. And at the end of ____ holiday, the bug went as quickly as it'd come. I went to bed on the Saturday night all sweaty and sick, but woke up the next morning feeling ____ – just in time to go back to work the next day!
