Broken Bones

Eloise fell of the couch at grandma's house on a Wednesday. After the fall she was grumpy, sad and tired. I noticed that she didn't like her arm to be touched but she seemed to be using it so I did not think much of it. Saturday morning came and Eloise fell into the bathtub after her favorite shark toy. Again this fall caused her arm pain and she kept holding it and would not let anyone touch it. Bryce took her in to the hospital in MH and sure enough it was broken. So she came home feeling pretty special with a pretty pink cast. By the time we went to church Sunday the cast had fallen off three times. So Bryce took her in again and they wrapped it in a tensor bandage and told us to go to the Children's Hospital when we got back to Calgary (the doc there in MH had apparently never done a cast so small). So Sunday night took Bryce and Eloise to the hospital for the third time for a not so pretty but properly fitting white cast. So the next three weeks we will be dealing with a small cast and a much happier Eloise.
