Trampoline and X-rays


Now I knew by getting a trampoline we were asking for trouble-who knew it would be in the first few weeks of having it though! While jumping on a Monday night with the cousins Autumn was popped off by Austin and hurt her right arm. She was able to move everything and it looked alright so we decided to let it be and see how she did over the week. On Thursday we went to Disneyland with some friends and while holding hands with Hailey she would occasionally scream out in pain and cry. Well, that didn't seem like a good sign so Paul and I took her to Urgent Care Friday and got the arm x-rayed. She had a "buckle fracture", a small sliver on her wrist bone area. It wasn't restricting the use of her hand so they gave a a splint and told us to keep it wrapped up for 6 weeks. After showing Grandma Bills she got her a brace from work and she likes that much better than the ace bandage wrap. All in all she is handling it very well. She can still get wet and play and is able to take it off for baths. She was a little bummed that she couldn't have a pink or purple cast for her friends to write on, but we are so glad it was minor! We lucked out for sure!! Knocking on wood that our luck holds out!!
