OK well this happened last Sunday i am just slow at getting my blogs up. We had a good day at church came home and Kenzie Jackson and Braxton were all playing on our big bean bag. I guess it fell over and kenzie landed on Braxton and Braxton started screaming. I just figured he got landed on and nothing more but he kept on screaming and screaming for about an 1/2 an hour and that is not like him to do that. So Ashleigh and I took him to the instacare down the street. Luckily it was a slow day for them and there was nobody waiting in front of us so we got in pretty quick. Braxton was still screaming the whole time and my heart was breaking cause I couldn't do anything to help him. They got x-ray's from him he did not like that but they got three pictures of his arm.
The nurse came in with a splint and splinted his arm up and said the doctor will come and talk to you but we are pretty sure it is broken. Needless to say the doctor said he was 98% sure he fractured his elbow.
I made a follow up appointment at PCMC fracture clinic for Wednesday. The results are that he indeed fractured his elbow and now he has a blue cast on which he picked out the color. He has to wear it for a month, which is really hard considering we like to going swimming, and have water fights. Not to mention difficult to keep him clean they said he has to be sponge bathe but i just have been wrapping it in Saran wrap and plastic bags, and been giving him a shower other wise I think he would be looking like a ragamuffin.
