So we have adventurous children. To sum up a few of the medical trips: Ben has ridden an ambulance twice (respiratory issues), Hannah has broken her arm twice, and this summer Michelle got stitches. I was going to put a picture up but it is on my phone as we took those pictures from the doctors office. Sam has alwasy said, I have never had a cast, That's cool that Ben got to ride in an ambulance, etc. Enter this:
After having a cast for less than 24 hours he decided it wasn't as cool as he thought it would be and wondered how long he would have to wear said cast. Fortunately for him, the answer is only three weeks. Obviously it is not a bad break to have such a short cast time.
What did he do? Fell off his bike. And yes he was wearing a helmet (required at our house or mom takes your bike and won't let you ride it anymore). We have the curbs that slope everywhere, not just the driveways. He was riding right next to the curb (like inches away) and decided to turn into a driveway. His bike didn't make that turn well and he came off. Fractured distal radius I believe is what the doctor called it (small break up by the wrist).
And if you see Michelle she will tell you about the hole she got in her head that required 9 stitches this past summer. Monkeys jumping onto the bed gave her that injury.
And the doctor wonders why I am so calm about my kids injuries. Let's just stop with those okay?
