While I was sitting in Bryan's hospital room, I received a call from the pediatrician letting me know that the x-rays we took yesterday showed Myles had two fractures in his right hand. He broke two bones while playing football with some older friends after school a week prior to x-rays. A bigger kid fell hard on Myles' hand and I figured it was just bruised, but after a week and Myles was still favoring it and there was residual swelling, I took him in. I felt like Mother of the Year when I received that phone call. They referred me to an orthopedic doc and asked that I take Myles that afternoon to see them. I explained that might be a little tricky as I was in the hospital with my husband, but would schedule an appointment as soon as I could! What a whirlwind!
Myles was a champ about getting his cast.
He said, "Mom, want to know the best thing that's ever happened to me?"
My response, "You bet!"
Myles proudly holding up his cast and exclaims, "THIS!!" (helped to ease my guilty conscience a little bit)
