ER

I am pretty sure the insurance company must hate me by now.  Hannah made a trip to the ER last Wednesday night.  She fell off the slide and hurt her arm. At first we didn't think it was a big deal, but when she refused to play and asked to go home, I figured it was serious.  She always wants to play with her friends at the park.  After calling the after hours number to get our referral, we were off to the ER.  Thank goodness it wasn't busy like the last time I was there.  I had to take Meeghan as well since the husband was studying.  I felt silly trying to lug Meeghan in her car seat, help Hannah do everything, and trying to carry the diaper bag and my pumping bag.  After a few x-rays that scared the bejeezus out of Hannah, it was determined she may have a chip fracture.  She was given a splint and told to follow up with her doctor.  We didn't get home until after 11.  It was a very long night.  Luckily, during her follow up visit she was given the green light to use the arm again.  She thinks it was only a sprain.  I have a feeling Miss Hannah is going to be my accident prone child.

Waiting to see the doctor
