Once again, my daughter hurt herself

[Misanthropical]

She was outside playing last night and tried to do a cartwheel. She landed wrong and fractured two of her fingers on her right hand.

The ER put a splint type thing on it and made an appt. for her to get a cast put on. They wanted the swelling to go down before they put a cast on. She goes tomorrow for the cast, which she will have to wear for 6 weeks.

That girl is going to be the death of me!

As a father of 5 and a grandfather of 7.

The first kids you have, you worry about every little thing.

After three or four.. You ask if there is a lot of blood.

No blood= you will live.:roll:

Eben56, my daughter is my second of three children, but she is the one who hurts herself the most.

Goodness! Hope she gets to feeling better!

With my kids I ask 3 questions:

Are you bleeding?
Is something broken?
Are you going to die?

If the answer to all three is "No.", then my response is a very tired "You'll live. Go *insert whatever it was that they were supposed to be doing*."
