A huge sledding hill + an out of control sledder (Riley) + a kid we don't know just sitting at the bottom of the hill = a broken hand for Riley.
Yep, Ry went sledding with Uncle Dave and her cousin, Brody, a few weeks ago and hurt her hand on the last run of the day. I thought it was just bruised, so we waited a few days to see if it would start to feel better. On day #3 after the accident I took her to the doctor and found out she had fractured a bone in her hand...her LEFT hand (yes, she is left-handed). She was in a splint for a few days, and then has been in a cast for the last two weeks...two more weeks to go and it can come off. Ry has been a pretty good sport about it, considering she missed the last three weeks of basketball and getting her school work done has been more difficult. On the plus side, Ry said at least her teacher said she wouldn't be grading her handwriting until she gets her cast off!
Her hand wasn't looking too good...so off to the doctor we went.
First the splint....
then the cast.
