Ouch!



Justin was Kendall's basketball coach for basketball this season and the last practice of the year all the parents were invited to scrimmage the kids on the team.

I was pretty sick so Nathan filled in for me.  During the game Nathan fell and a little boy fell right on top of his hand.  It hurt pretty bad but Nathan got up and continued to play.

After the game he and Kendall went to Aunt Pam's Strong as a Rock and then came home.  He complained a little about his hand and then went to bed.

The next morning he woke up and showed me his hand.  It was getting pretty colorful and had some swelling so Justin and I thought we had better take him in.

Sure enough he had broke it down along his pinky bone in his hand and had a another small fracture a little above it.


The doctor put him in a splint and a few days later he got his cast.

He choose a green cast and did great and was all smiles until the doctor had to set his bone.  He was in a ton of pain and you could read it all over his face but still no tears.


After we got home the fun began.  We all got to sign his cast.

He got it off six weeks later and it the x-ray showed that it had healed perfect.
