Broken wrist

Here we go again! Tuesday evening I found myself taking Dallin to Urgent Care, all the while praying that his track record of breaking a bone every year wouldn't hold true. I was wrong! About a week ago, he had been rollerblading with Danny when he fell. He landed on his right wrist and immediately felt something was wrong. Still, we waited (and hoped) to see if  the pain would go away. Most of it did but, after a week, Dallin said that his wrist still hurt when he would rotate it in certain ways so off we went to Urgent Care. Dallin was seen by the doctor and had x-rays taken of his wrist that showed a small fracture in his right ulna. A part of the bone had actually broken off and was now floating in his wrist. I dreaded the worst, but was relieved to hear that Dallin could simply religiously wear a splint for 3 weeks and all should be well! Phew!! Here's hoping that next year we can be free from broken bones!!
