2nd Trip to Hospital in 48 Hours

So, if our weekend wasn't exciting enough, we went to Ally's confirmation open house at her home in Neenah on Sunday. After eating some AWESOME food, we were all outside when Noah came and told me that Jordan needed me. Of course, I say "why?" and he said, "No Mom. She REALLY needs you!"

So off I went around the house and there was Jordan laying on the grass, crying her eyes out. She was in a lot of pain. She was holding her left arm, near her elbow. Oh great, another broken elbow (4 years ago, Cassie broke her elbow). So I calmed her down and told her we'll take her in for an x-ray.

We left the other kids at the party and headed to Theda Clark Hospital. After about 2 hours of waiting, talking to doctor and nurses, and x-rays, they didn't think she broke her elbow but didn't want to take any chances until an orthopaedic surgeon checked her out. So, they put on a hard-molded cast on her arm and put her in a sling. Nice! Now, we have a drama queen with a cast! She actually texted her friends to let them know what was going on before we even got home. UGH!

So of course, being the scrapper that I am, I had to take more pictures at the hospital!






Tomorrow we find out what's the verdict if the arm is broken...
