Update. She just got out of surgery, was supposed to last an hour,
ended up two and a half. She has plates and screws in her bones,
surgeon said she'll be in a lot of pain. a LOT. She was crying in the
recovery room because of pain. The doctor says if this doesn't work
it's an external fixator. I'm crushed.

Oh man, that sucks...


Just stopped by, she's with mom, still crying it hurts so bad. It must
be awful, because she's a tough nut. She was supposed to get out after
a couple of hours, but because it just didn't go the way it semmed it
might, she will stay the night so they can give her IV drugs.
According to the surgeon, she did the right arm good, tearing
cartilage, muscle and all.


Ouch, sorry to hear about it, it made me cringe to think about having to
watch a child go through that.
