Arnold Schwarzenegger has recently made another trip to the hospital. The governor of California was released from hospital on Saturday (12.30.06) after he broke his right thinh bone in a skiing accident while on holiday.
The 59-year-old is expected to use crutches when he is sworn in for his second term as governor on Friday (01.05.07).
'The Terminator' actor broke his leg while skiing in Idaho's Sun Valley. He underwent a 90 minute operation at Santa Monica's St John's Health Center on December 26 to connect the broken bone fragments using screws and cables.
Schwarzenegger's orthopedic surgeon, Kevin Ehrhart, said it could take up to eight weeks for the injury to heal.
This is Schwarzenegger's third visit to hospital in less than a year. Including a recent visit after his motorcycle crashed into a car.
