E's Accident

Wow! What a weird week this has been! We drove home from Idaho Monday (what a great trip we had to Wyoming! I'll post pictures of that as soon as I find the cord to my camera). That night L had a fever and didn't sleep well, so Tuesday morning I took her to the doctor, and she has strep.
Then, Wednesday E didn't feel well, but didn't have a fever or anything, so we just thought she needed rest. Last night at about 1:30a.m. I heard a cry, and went to E's room to find her sitting on the floor in tears. The long-story-short version is that she broke her clavicle, pretty bad, and has strep!
Poor kid, she's been so brave, and we won't know any real definite specifics until tomorrow afternoon when we go see a specialist. I'm not sure how to get her pajamas off short of cutting them, but then what does she wear? I've got to go get some button up shirts this evening!
Anyway, thought it would be interesting to see her x-rays (forgive the fence in the background)! Hope for the best and I'll keep updating the blog with whatever we learn!

Well, we went to the specialist and found out that there was nothing else to do besides putting her arm in a sling to protect her clavicle from too much movement. She's been pretty good at keeping the sling on most of the time. She doesn't need her pain medicine anymore either!
