I had to take Jadon to the Doctor today. On Sunday, we were golfing with my mom and dad and my brother and Jadon managed to find a hole in the ground (he is so like me) and hurt his ankle. I heard it snap/pop. Ouch! We iced it and kept it elevated. The Doctor's office was closed Monday. They were finally able to get me in today. They x-rayed it and sure enough, he has fractured it. He fractured his growth plate to be exact. He doesn't have to be in a cast, but he is in an immobilizing brace for at least a month. After a month they will x-ray it again and see if it has healed well enough. What a trooper! He has hardly complained and the Doctor says that the pain is similar to a very severe sprain. I know how badly that hurts. His pain tolerance he must get from his Dad. I am a baby!!!
On top of all this Brian is super sick today. Same nasty bug I had yesterday. So my job tonight is to play nurse to a sick hubby and sore son. If any of you think that that sounds like loads of fun...well...come on over. Misery loves company. ;)
