[QUOTE="crazymama30, post: 51852, member: 3184"] difficult child, husband and easy child got home about 9:30 last night. night. difficult child showed me his elbow. Huge bump. Said at morning recess (8:30 am) he and a friend were having a contest to see who could kick their shoe off the farthest, I think. His explanations are very interesting. He "says" he showed the teacher and she said it was just a bump. I do not know what size the bump was. At 10:00 we headed to ER. The FNP who saw him saw something suspicious, and treated it as a break. It may be chipped. A radiologist will read it today, and we should have results by noon. difficult child does not want to miss school as he only has 2.5 days left. He did not go to sleep untill after midnight, I was up till one. Not feeling to happy this morning. I have a full day at work too. In the ER, the FNP asked "what is he on all these medications for?" so I had to explain what "all" 2 of the prescriptions are for. Oh well. It has got to get better, and I hope difficult child's arm is ok. He was very scared, asked if he had to wear sling forever. I explained that bones heal, that a broken bone is not forever. He did not want a cast (splint) which surprised me. I always thought they were cool as a kid, and wanted to break a bone. I never did, but had stitches a lot. [/QUOTE]
