My poor little man broke his arm this week. On Thursday, he jumped off his bed and hurt his arm. He was holding it and whining for about a half hour and then stopped so I figured he was fine. Then on Saturday, he fell off the swingset. He started holding and pampering the same arm but this time whined for quite some time. I called my friend Lindsey who is a PA and asked what she’d recommend. She saved me and just called in an order for an x-ray. When we got to the place to do the x-ray, Brox was acting completely fine. He was putting pressure on it and running around crazy. We told the people that we changed our mind and were sure he was just fine. After a lot of coaxing from them, we decided to just do the x-ray for a piece of mind. Well the results came back with 2 breaks! Let me just tell ya…. I’m not sure I’m ready for this crazy boy stuff and a future of broken bones!
My sweet sister Meg and her family heard that he broke his arm and of course rushed him over some breakfast for a king… If ya can’t tell, he was in heaven!
He had to wear a sling for 3 days until the swelling went down and then they did the hard cast. He can’t decide if he hates it or thinks it’s really cool!
