- it involves an ER visit
- some tears
- a crap ton of worry
- some fiber glass
- some ace bandage
- last but not least, XRAYS!
Did you take a guess? Do you think you figured it out?
Did you guess a broken bone?! DING DING DING you are correct!
Yep... My little guy will have Mr. Cast again for about 6 weeks.
From what I know the kids were chasing each other and he crashed into the couch. He broke his wrist.
Why was I not there to see it? Cause I was putting away clothes... About the time I yelled
"Can ya'll please stop runnin"
I heard him let out a scream that hurts any mama's ears.
This happened at about 4pm... I gave him some meds leftover from the broken leg and at about 410. 430 came around and he moved his arm on the couch and screamed once again... I knew it was broken :(
So I get him to the ER at about 530 and they do Xrays of his shoulder and I knew it was not that part of his arm. I asked for full arm Xrays but they said the doc didn't order it....
An hour later I was back in Xray doing the wrist. He cried the entire time. Screamed and cried. So guess what, I cried too!
There is nothing more helpless then your son crying but you know it is in his best interest that they take these "pictures"
So we go back, doc says I am right his wrist is broken. His arm is now in a splint.
He gets his hard cast Thursday...
All these things happen when daddy is gone, which makes it tough.
I think the couch has been dismissed from our family... Especially one with a hide-a-bed
