ER was one of my favourites. I played a car accident victim who has leukemia. I got to wear a neck brace and nose tubes for the two days I worked.
- Dakota FanningIf an athlete ruptures or strains an (anterior cruciate ligament) in an evening game, we can have a custom, lightweight carbon fiber brace to that athlete by mid-morning the next day. This would have taken weeks in Namath`s era.
- John MartinWhen `Sixteen Candles` first came out I was totally offended by the girl in the brace, but I saw the movie recently and I laughed so hard I cried,
- Karen JohnsonI`m into doing my own stunts. I learned (how to) years ago when I was doing a show for American TV called Covington Cross. I had a lot of fighting and rough stuff in that and I always want to do my own stunts -- it just looks a lot better. We`ve got really good stunt guys on the show and they teach us all this stuff. The other night I had to put on a back brace and pads and everything -- I want to participate and they`re letting me, so it`s pretty cool.
- Glenn QuinnI think we need to brace ourselves,
- Tom AdamsI worked right the way through the summer, ... I had a grade-two tear of the ligament. They couldn`t reconstruct it so I had to go in a brace and let it heal itself. Then I had to work on the strength of the muscles and the hamstring to compensate for the missing ligament. I was on crutches for about three weeks and then it was about getting the movement back. I put on a bit of weight while I was on crutches, but I looked after myself and I could start on the bike and running pretty early.
- Paul RobinsonConfront a child, a puppy, and a kitten with a sudden danger; the child will turn instinctively for assistance, the puppy will grovel in abject submission, the kitten will brace its tiny body for a frantic resistance
- Archie GriffenIt`s a matter of making sure I look after it. I`m just icing it and keeping the brace on to stop the swelling.
- Ashley JacksonPeople kept coming up to our booth asking if this was the knee brace that everyone was talking about!
