Aidan's Final Outcome.....

So my worst fear from Aidan's accident came true today. Yep, his wrist is broken or fractured along his growth plate to be exact. So Aidan is now sporting a neon green cast and not to happy at the thought of that. He has decided it can be fun to scare people by tapping them on the head with his "green arm". But mostly he is just aggrevated about the whole ordeal and I think ready to be done with having weird clunky things on his arm. I've been amazed at the fact he hasn't tried to take the splint or the cast off, just walks around swinging his arm for all it's worth. As Mothers I think we have certain instincts that we don't even realize we may have all the time. I've had the feeling that Aidan's arm was hurting him more than we thought and afraid we'd find out more than we'd hoped for on Monday when we went to the Doctors. I wanted to believe that everything was just fine and he just sprained it, or tweaked it a bit. The thing that made me fear it was worse and really broken was the way he favored his arm so much from the start and how much pain he seemed to be in. Then thru-out the weekend he seemed ultra sensitive like he felt more pain than usual at different moments. But then he'd just go on playing like nothing was wrong at all. I'm just happy that he's finally alright and on the road to getting better! He has been a real Sweetheart during all of this...not always happy...but putting up with it all!
