After the hardest funeral I've ever had to go through my daughter fell and broke her arm... I rushed her to the ER and they sent us home saying it was broken and no reduction was required... Well boy were they wrong! Their own radiology report shows that it was completely broken and laying next to where it was supposed to be. She broke her growth plate off her radius at the elbow. We saw the ortho Monday and he scheduled surgery for first thing Tuesday morning. They had to put a titanium wire starting at her wrist going all the way up.

I'm in a full on flare today! I'm not sure if its stress or those horrible hospital chairs. Thank goodness my pm appointment is tomorrow.

I feel cursed. :-(

Oh Lindsey,

First, thank you for posting! I was getting antsy not hearing anything from you.

Second, oh hun, I know the feeling. I really do. That's an awful lot to be going on back to back like that. You do have your plate full, and you have every reason to pull back and take care of these things that are circling around you.

It's no wonder you're frazzled at the moment.

You're not cursed,....you're momentarily bombarded.

Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers....

Linds_, I've been thinking about you. I'm glad you posted. Remember that old phrase "when it rains, it pours ?" It's true. I know you already know this, but the next year or more will be the hardest. Be patient with yourself and be good to yourself. Everyone grieves in their own time frame and in their own ways.

God Bless you Lindsey.Positive thoughts and prayers heading your way.

I do hope you have some happier days ahead. You have been through some horrible things for sure and need a break from it. I know they say that we are only given as much as we can handle but just because we can handle it doesn't mean we want to have to. Please remember to take care of yourself also and get enough rest.

Wow Linds you have been through so much lately! I do hope your daughter is alright, and her arm heals up properly! It is good to hear from you, but just wish you had better news! Just know that we are all here for you! You have our support!

Will keep you in my prayers, and may God's Peace be with YOU!

Glad you posted and remember folks here care about you and leaning on us is what friends are for.

You do not have to struggle alone with any of it. You should have let one of us know about your daughter and we would have started a prayer thread to see her through surgery.

Hoping she heals properly and quickly and lesson here is always wait for the radiology report and not rely heavily on the ERs read of any scan and then get the films and take to the specialists office too.

Thinking of you, Lindsey............ if it's not one thing, it's certainly something else. I'm sorry for all you are going through!

Love, Tina
