FML

Two days ago, I was substitute teaching for this 5th grade class and before lunch we went to the Library. As the children were busy finding their books, I noticed a young boy twirling and playing around w/ the end of his t-shirt sleeve and it appeared that he had placed his left arm inside his shirt. So I said to the boy, “Hey, stop messing around w/ your shirt, you’re gonna stretch it out. Now, stick your arm out!” The boy looked at me w/ odd amazement. After the Library affair, the boy and his friend approached me. His friend said, “Mr. Gonzales, he can’t stick out his arm look.” And the boy proceeded to show me that his left arm had been amputated from the elbow down. FML
