SISTER LOU'S BROKEN ARM!













As most of you know my children are inclined to get hurt! On 9/16/2009 We were at tadens soccer game and Taycie was spinning around with her arms out. She got dissy and fell down, Normally this would not be a big deal She is our wild child who does DarInG things that could easily break her neck! So spinning in a circle I THOUGHT was safe..... Boy was I wrong!! When she fell she did not jump right back up so I ran over to her knowing something was wrong. When I picked her up her face was bleeding so I thought she had just bite her lip or something. Then I looked a little closer at her left arm and nearly heaved! I had picked her up from her armpits and the upper part of her arm was straight then just above her elbow had a lump and was dangling.... Jade was coaching and so I took her over to him and her said Run her to the ER. I thought maybe she had dislocated her elbow and they would just put it back in and send us on our way.. NOPE! The nurse came in and told us the X-rays show the bone just above her elbow was broke and it had cracked down into the joint. A local orthopedic Doc. Dr. Bitner came in and looked at it then he manipulated it (put it back into the right spot) and casted it with a bright pink cast.

SO now her days consist of SAFE activities! We have found she LOVE LOVE LOVES to read books!!
