I picked out a sweet maroon cast, that I'll be wearing for 4 weeks. It all started Friday night at a playplace - pizza party. I hurt my arm there, so we went to the hospital to fix it. Well the Dr. tried to fix it like my previous elbow dislocations (nursemaid elbow), but that did nothing, then x-rays and there was nothing broken, so he cranked my arm again (to try to reset the nursemaid elbow.) but It didn't work, and hurt a lot. So they sent me home in a sling, to wait until Monday to see the Orthopedic Doctor. It was an ouchy weekend, trying to keep my arm still or it hurt. Monday we went to the orthopedic Dr. He looked at the x-rays said I broke my elbow, but it was a break that didn't need any adjustment just a cast...and I picked a maroon one. Now I'm 'invincible'...well that's what mom told me, so I've said it a few times.
So far so good with this cast thing...but I've got to keep it dry for 4 weeks....
Happy little patient...well now I am,
Jeremiah

Oh No! I hope your elbow feels better and heals fast. I'm sure it is pretty hard to keep that thing dry ;-)
