ER Visit

On the last day of Daniel's 50-mile hike he tripped while walking through a river. He landed with his wrist bent back against a trekking pole. The ER doctor who is a scout leader with them said might be fractured so we ought to have it x-rayed.

So after he got home And after be showered and after he napped for 2 hours and after we had a rare dinner with our whole family we took him to the ER. There is a small fracture right on the growth plate on his thumb. He is in sort of a semi-cast for 3 weeks.

It's not too painful but Daniel says his fingers are already short enough. He doesn't want to take any chances with their growth! ; )
