David wanted to come home and show me his arm before he went to the Doctor's office. It wasn't anything obvious but there was definitely pain and David has a pretty high tolerance for pain. It looked like it could have just been a bruise but since David doesn't complain about bruises we took him in to for a second opinion. The x-rays showed a definite break but it didn't break through the bone.
Michelle took David in to see the doctor and then they spent a lot of time waiting. After the x-rays they spent a long time waiting for one doctor to talk to another doctor before making their final decision. They decided to do a pre-cast while the swelling goes down. In a week they will put on the real cast. As far as breaks go, this is a good one. Since the bone didn't break all the way through there isn't any setting that needs to happen (but he still needs to treat the arm as broken). The other bone didn't break but shows weak spots after having significant bending during the fall. So that bone will have time to heal too.
