My son, Connor, has been the bane of our existence this week...two trips to the hospital within 5 days.
Last Friday afternoon he wanted to go down the road and play with some friends. He came back about 15 minutes later crying, saying he fell and hurt his arm. I checked it out and it seemed to me it was a bad sprain. All was OK during the weekend, but on Sunday, he wanted to go down the road again, no worries, next thing I know, the doorbell rings and our neighbor walked him home because he fell over again and said the same arm hurts.
My wife took him to the doctor on Monday, they sent him for x-rays and they went straight to the children's hospital because he had broken his radius bone. He had to get a shot of morphine because they had to move the bone back into position.

Friday afternoon I get a call at work just before knock off time that my wife is picking him up from the after school care because there's something wrong with his other arm.
well, they get an x-ray and you guessed it, he broke the other one. Apparently he tripped over a toy at school.
The same people were on duty at the hospital and they were seeing him there again.

So, we've had a fantastic week at our house with this boy.
On a side note, we're waiting for Children's Services to call!
