“’Typhoid Fever’– Present Tense Childhood Memory.”

I am six years of age and standing out in my front yard. I see a really big stick that is kind of heavy, also there is a tetherball pole set up in the middle of my lawn. My brother and I decided to play a game to see who was better. Well I decided to use the stick to help me get some type of power into my hit. Once my brother hit the ball it came swinging towards me. Right when I made contact with the ball, the stick came flying back and hit me square on the forehead. I had a really big lump on my head that took about a week for it to go away. By the end of the day I now have a swollen head then we didn't get to finish the game because my head hurt so bad. I thought it was funny but I didn't like the way my face looked at the end.
