Sling Man

Friday afternoon around 1:00 pm Finn was getting something off of the table. He was standing on a chair at the kitchen table. It is nothing for me to walk into the dining room and for him to be on top of the table eating someone else's food or coloring. He is my little monkey. Well, the chair and floor won on Friday. He ended up falling wrong and I could tell that something was not right. He also could not push himself up off the floor. And then when I was loading up the car to go to ER, he picked up his basketball to shoot and he could not lift it up...real tell tale sign that something was wrong.

After a few X-rays and tears, they figured out that he has a fractured humerus. Right below his shoulder it is fractured. No cast needed, but he will be sporting this sling for 3-4 weeks until it heals. So far he has been great with keeping it on. He has not been fussy at all and the only time his arm bothers him is when he cannot get up. He is one tough cookie.
