A Bad Bad Day

Well, it happened. I have always known that someday, one of my kids would get hurt. Like more than a bump on the head kind of hurt. My poor little Brookie went and rolled off of the bed onto the hardwood floor. She landed on her leg, and has a Buckle Break in her femur.
After a trip to Instacare, and then over to the hospital to see the Orthopedist, she came home with a pillow cast, which is essentially a real cast with tons of padding inside. It goes on soft, then they wet it and as it dries it hardens.
Oh man, I think I about died when it happened. I felt horrible. And it's taken a week, but now I can talk about it without coming to tears. I was having a hard time with it for a while.
And now that she's not in obvious pain, it's actually kind of cute. It pretty much doubles her weight though...
