Jinxed

My coworker, George, jinxed me! Boy is he going to hear about it when I get to work today!!!

Yes, we were talking about my kids and their seemingly frequent flyer mileage to the Emergency Room and specifically how Megan always seems to get hurt about this time of year. This summer she has been working out with the varsity high school team several days a week doing their conditioning training. We last night during a scrimmage, she collided with another player and fell. She landed funny on her left wrist. (It was at the end of practice, but being the tough dedicated player, she continued playing.) Long story - short.

We eventually went to the Emergency Department to get it checked out. (It didn't feel broken, but we decided to go just in case.) One good thing was that we got to see our old neighbor Carolyn who works in radiology. It was actually a pretty quick trip - less than 3 hours, but it was still 1am before I got home. Well, they don't think its broken, but decided to put a splint on and refer her to the orthoped just to be safe. Well this splint is HONKING HUGE!!!! She's had casts smaller. Bad thing is that soccer tryouts are in 2-3 weeks and if its broken, she's out for the season. oh well....positive thoughts!!! Only a mild sprain.

We'll keep you in the loop.
