Matthew was on the trampoline with big sis Makayla after dinner on Thurs. night. (Mar 19th) We are guessing he got a bigger bounce than he could handle and came down wrong on his leg. We knew something was wrong he cried for at least a half hour straight.
We spent forever in the kids care; he was in so much pain and his cry was just breaking my heart.
We finally got some drugs for him and the x-rays done. We had to wait for the radiologist to be called in so he could read the x ray. He ended up with a buckle fracture in his right knee, we got home at 10:30 Thurs. night & I took a few pics to show his splint cast.
We go back in Mon. the 23rd to decided if he needs a real, hard, cast. We'll keep you up to date on how he is healing.
He looks happy cuz he's on drugs.
Trust me he was in a ton of pain. And too tired to care about the cast. Now he hates it and wants it off.
Trying to sleep with a broken leg. It was a very long night.

poor guy! we haven't had any broken bones... yet. i don't look forward to that day. i hope he heals quickly!
Poor baby, did you have him sign a consent form before you let him jump? He could sue you - you know. Hugs and kisses for him.
