The Zoo will be starting another school year with a Heathen in a cast. Heathen #1 managed to break his right arm on the third day of kindergarten. Apparently, Heathen #2 decided it was his turn!
Yesterday, while at the park, he managed to fall off the monkey bars at the playground and fall on his right arm.
We were about thirty minutes from home so we ended up going to a different hospital than we normally frequent. Once there, the arm was promptly declared broken and splinted.
For the first time ever, Heathen #2 was given something for pain that was more than just Children's Tylenol. He was much more comfortable after the medication kicked in - he was also quite goofy!
We'll head to the orthopedist's on Monday for the actual cast. What a way to start 5th grade and Middle School!
