A day in the life of Katie - jan 6th

Matt took Sadie to the vet because we didn't really like what the one said yesterday.  I took LeLe to school and then Gibson and I headed to children's to  his Gastro appointment.  We got there a few minutes early but they were running a little behind.  It was worth the wait bc I love Dr. Mestre!  He recommended that we do a endoscopy in February.

While I was waiting on the nurse to schedule it, I got a call from the school.  I ignored it because I assumed it was the call saying Gibson was absent.  Then it rang again.  This time I answered.  It was the nurse from the school asking where I was...of course, I said children's with Gibson...her response, there already?

Not a good sign.  LeLe had fallen and nurse thinks her arm is broken.  I rushed out of the dr office without an appointment to go get LeLe.  Once I got to the school, the power went out.  They were all holding flashlights in LeLe while sweet Mrs Barnes held her.  She was as white as a ghost.  Mrs Barnes loaded her in the car while I talked to Shannon.  She came to get Gibson and I flew to the pediatrician.  Matt and I couldn't decide whether to go to the ER or to Mayfair.  Mayfair said to come straight there so we did.  Dr. McCain recommended that we go to downtown children's in case surgery was needed.  They ended up cutting off LeLes sleeve.  We then headed back to children's to learn that her arm is broken above her elbow.  90% of these cases require surgery but since it was still connected they recommended casting it for 3 weeks.  At first he said not waterproof but I'm pretty sure after seeing the look in my face he reconsidered.  We ended up with a watertight cast de the next 3 weeks.  LeLe was in significant pain and wouldn't talk to anyone.
