This morning we went to BIL & SIL for Sunday football. A & her cousin were on the tramp, not even jumping, and A fell off the tramp as she was looking over it (not sure what they were doing) but she fell on her head and try to catch herself and broke her arm in two places on her forearm. Poor thing was screaming in pain while we were at urgent care, broke my heart, she kept saying "help me mommy" . They gave her a shot of morphine for the pain, which made her scream even more. She's in a soft cast for the next week (for swelling to go down) and then they will put her in a hard cast that she'll have for 4-6 weeks. Good news is she's super excited for her pink & purple cast. And she can still go to dance .

I can't imagine L doing that. Good for you for staying calm and lots of snuggles for her tonight. At least kid's bones heal quickly and she doesn't have to wear it too long.
Thanks ladies. She seems to being fine. We haven't given her any pain meds since she got the shot (around noon MST). But before bed she will get her dose of tylenol/codeine the Dr. prescribed. She even wanted to go potty by herself, and she did it all herself.....pulled pants & undies down, wiped and pulled everything up. She was pretty proud of herself .
