Hi All
Just thought I'd share....
(http://www.mud-club.com:8081/galleryimages/1212702242-3429-arm%20017.JPG)
This picture shows me cradleing my 12 year old sons arm after he fell while swinging on a goal post cross bar during a training session... [-X
He did it at 6-10 on monday and as you can see the arm is the wrong shape.. :->
By 7pm we were at the hospital ,he was taken into theater at 11-55 , and came out at 03-15 tuesday . :(
I sat with him until 5 ish then went home leaving the wife to stay with him.(my other son had exams the next day and I had to get him up for school) :roll:
I got to bed at 5-50 , then got up at 7 :shock:
Then had to go to work until 9pm ..body clock is shot...
the resulting brake broke both bones in his arm and needed three pins and 12 stitches ,his arm will be in plaster for six weeks when they will knock him out again to remove the pins ..
poor fella was very brave and is doing well ,just a bit fed up now not being able to move as the arm needs to be elivated for a week.

Thats some bad luck there lee hope he feels better soon.

Not nice. I did a similar thing at the same age. The only benefit to it was annoying my classmates with the stinky plaster cast. I don't know if they still use that stuff.
get well soon young'un!

He's going back in Tuesday for a new cast .
And he can now move his finger :dance:
no they don't use plaster anymore they use a kind of plastic resin that dries faster and is very light..
and you get to choose the colour.... :lol:

Unlucky indeed - hope he feels better soon.
I've always said football is a dangerous game. We get up to all sorts of so called dangerous activities in Scouts but it's always the lads that play football that turn up with broken bones?
