Could use some good thoughts

11 years ago

My Great Grand Daughter fell down some stairs last night and broke her arm. Thank goodness it was a hairline fracture but at 3 years old, she thinks she had had the temp cast on long enough. This is the one with the 4 month old sister, and her mom runs a day care. Just keep them in your thought and prayers.

I think I feel worse for the mom! Hopefully the little one will adjust quickly to the cast.

Poor Evie! (We have an Evie, too, short for Genevieve.) I hope she'll adjust to that strange thing on her arm and just forget it's there. Can it be *decorated*? LOL

Could Use Some Good Thoughts and Prayers

Sending good thoughts and hopes for a good outcome ... and offering prayers on Bill's behalf ... and for confidence and peace of mind for all of you in the midst of it all. (((((Bill, Terri and the whole family))))) I'm pleased that you've re-established some connections with acquaintances/friends from the past, also. What a small world it sometimes turns out to be - and I've sometimes said that it could well be that often we won't find out unless we ask a question or two, or make a couple of comments, more than one might regularly expect to do. Sometimes it's the second mile that produces the payoff. ole joyful

Just got back from the hospital. She was admitted. They started pushing her IV. She was severely dehydrated was anemic to the point they said she may have to have a transfusion. The Dr. on call ordered lots of tests including a cat scan. She does have a skull fracture and he is going to talk to us about this tomorrow. It doesn't look to promising as of right now. There's more going on that I don't understand, hopefully the Dr. can clear this up for me tomorrow. Thanks again everyone for everything. Patty

awww poor baby.... they sure cast bones sooner than they used to... Glad they got it on quickly... Did they make it a special color for her? Perhaps dome bling will help - give her hugs and tell her how special she is with the cast on... Prayers for the mom to survive it all.

A tough age to be in a cast, but I hope little Evie heals quickly.

Oh yeah, that age doesn't like to be slowed down! My best to all of you and for a speedy recovery.

My GS broke his arm when he was 5. They adapt to those cast so easily.

Hope her mothers does well :o)

Hope she heals fast and that Mom survives! Also hope her cast is brightly colored and she can ask everyone to sign it for her. That can be fun; at least, it was for me when I broke my ankle at age 69! :>)
