The kids were at my Mom's yesterday while I was at work. I got a text from my mom saying Curran fell off a chair and she thinks he might have broken his arm...Well being the insensitive Mom that I am I said well just watch it and if I need to come home from work I will. She continued to watch his arm and noticed he wouldn't use it and if she tried to bend it he would just cry, Well I called the Dr. on my way home from work yesterday and got him an apt. He thought it might just me dislocated, but he couldn't pop anything back into place, So he sent us over for x-rays. Yep it was broken right above his elbow. What's scary is there is a growth plate there. We will need to take him to an orthopedic Dr. to see where we need to go from here. He has been a little champ! I will post a pic of his hard cast when he gets it.Tuesday, November 16, 2010

holy crap, you never get a break from the dr. I swear. lol Poor little guy. but to make you feel better, I probley would have told my kid to stop wining and go play; lol
Poor Little guy! I hope all goes well with the dr.
Oh man I've been there. I broke both my growth plates in both my elbows a year apart when I was about 4 and 5. Surgery, lots of recovery, no fun!! I hope he didn't break his. I still have trouble with mine.
