So we get a call today from the school to say that Adam has tripped on is shoelace and his wrist is very painful. So off we trot to Doc and then x-ray's to be told that yes he has cracked his wrist on the thumb side and that a tiny piece has chipped off. Nothing to worry about and won't need an operation but he is required to wear a splint for the next three weeks, so no sport, no swimming and of course its his writing hand too. Yay NOT.
So finally our constant pleas of "Tie your shoe laces, or you will trip" might actually now make sense to him.
This will be his second broken bone. He broke is collar bone falling out of a tree age 3.
A friend said to me, there is one in every family and ours is Adam.
