The Gimp

Last night Abby and Haley were playing in their room and somehow she hurt her leg. She couldn't put any weight on it and it seemed to be really painful, but there was no swelling, so we decided to wait until this morning before we took her to have it looked at. This morning, she had forgotten about it, of course, so she tried to just get out of bed, but immediately started to cry and fall when she put weight on it. So, Carey took her to the ER and they said she had a fracture and they gave her a splint (I know that's a run on sentence, but I did it anyway). I took her this afternoon to have her cast put on, and that doctor said there was no fracture, so he didn't give her a cast. Hopefully he's right. We're supposed to take the splint off on Saturday and hopefully she'll be able to walk. Anyway, here's a picture (you can kind of see the splint):



If you're puzzled by the fact that she looks so happy, she's our little tv-head, and she actually got to watch shows pretty much all day. Oh, and Cars, which is her FAVORITE movie! A funny thing about it being her favorite movie is that if you watch it with her, in the very beginning there is the screen that says THX and the little Robot comes out (you know that screen they always show in the theater). When that part happens she will smile and say "this is the best part".
