Ava's broken arm

 Ava fell today while playing "Sharks and Minnows" ( a game that sounds a lot like flag football) at lunch recess and broke her arm.  It was very painful.  Mom first took her to Kaiser Urgent Care, but after looking at it they sent her to Legacy Salmon Creek.  She was in the Short Stay Pediatric Unit.

I brought my iPad to entertain Harper while we waited.  Ava was very brave.  She struggled a bit with the IV and also when they needed to measure her arm for the hard splint.  She didn't want to bend her arm for fear the IV would hurt.

Fortunately, they had Harper's arm to measure, and she was glad to help out.

Getting lots of love and attention from Mom and Dad as she was waking up from the anesthesia.  

She kept saying "can I go home now?" and "is my arm broken?" and she said everyone looked like they had two heads.  

She'll have the splint on until the swelling goes down, then she'll get a cast, in pink.
