A Broken Arm

Mark called me at school after work and told me that Taylor's school had called and said he injured himself at school. When Mark got there, his coach told him that he thought it might be dislocated or broken. I left school around 4:15 and met them at the emergency room. About 2 hours later we learned that he had a broken bone near his elbow. So they put a splint on it and wrapped it in a gauze bandage. They gave us an orthopaedic's name to call so we could get an appointment for a cast to be put on. Taylor was not a happy camper. He was in quite a bit of pain. They gave us a prescription for some pain pills. We finally got home around 7:30. It was a long day.
