So Cody broke his arm. We went to Bear Lake for the 4th of July, a fun trip right? We went with some friends to their family cabin. We have been before so you think the kids remebered the rules?
I must of washed out their ears while we were at the pool. Jaci and I decided to go into town to get a shake, if you are driving to Bear Lake it's required of you to stop and get a shake. We told the daddies to watch the kids and we would be back. Well we got the call that Cody fell off the bunk bed and broke his arm. Rick said he heard a loud thump and nothing. so they went running to the bunk room and found cody in a pile on the floor, Rick turned him over and Cody looked up and said "I Bloke my arm" We were lucky to have the clinic close by with the nices 12 year old doctor you have ever met!
He broke his elbow to be exact. We needed to see a specialist as soon as we could. We were then faced with a dilema. to stay or go. we were going to spend the night and go to the lake on the 5th. It had been deemed a holiday so doctors wouldn't be in... so we stayed. Cody didn't want any medicine. I was prepared to sleep by his side in a recliner all night to comfort and medicate him. He slept through the night and got up the next moring to run around with the kids. We spent the rest of the day at the beach. The kids chased frogs and fish. We truly had a great time! We saw the specialist since the break was clean through the growth plate in his elbow they were concerned he might need surgery. But his arm was aligned and all was the best it could have been. I didn't need 2 surgeries in the same week. We alreay had Rick's hernia surgery scheduled. All we can do is hope it heals and he doesn't have a stumpy arm. He picked orange for a cast. A shock to all who know him. I thought for sure it would be blue. He came home with a smile and no regrets! Now lets start signing!
