Skylar had been complaining that her vision was getting blurry far away, so I called the eye doctor and made her an appointment for Tuesday. While at the appointment we discussed health problems and I jokingly mentioned her breaking her arm two years ago and said that the klutz gene runs strong in our family. I should have kept my mouth shut. The appointment ended and it was determined that Skylar needed glasses because she is near sighted.
I got to work a 12 hour shift on Wednesday. 8am to 8 pm. At 8:26 in the morning I got a call from the school saying that Skylar fell and hurt her arm and that I needed to get her to the doctor. Lucky for me Ben was home because I couldn't leave work. As it turns out some kid was running to catch the ball and ran into Skylar, knocking her down. Skylar told me later that she heard a snap and then it hurt. She fractured her arm right through the growth plate.
So after visiting the orthopedic surgeon, it was determined that Sky didn't need surgery, and is now in a blue cast from her shoulder to her fingers. Oh and her glasses came in today. I hope this week ends soon!
