i broke my arm and it sucks. i am getting a new pool in soon so me and my dad were taking my old pool down. there were 3 cinder blocks where there was a few holes. i lifted them up and went up the ladder to put them back. they were too heavy for me to lift all together, so i put one down on the bottom step. then i realized the ladder wasn't screwed in yet, so i was about to fall, with 2 blocks in my hands. i twisted my body so i didn't hit my head on the back of the blocks, and ended up landing on my arm and the one of the blocks i was holding came flying down onto my arm. luckily it wasn't too bad. i gave it a day because i thought it was just bruised a little, but this morning it was swollen as hell and hurt pretty bad

i told my dad to to take me to the doctor just to make sure it wasn't broken. they x rayed my arm, and they said they weren't sure if it was broken because their x ray wasn't "professional" enough to detect those sort of things. you would think an x ray was used to detect "those sort of things" right? so they sent us to leave and said they would call in about an hour when they could send us somewhere else. so me and my dad went out to lunch and they didn't call back yet. we went to the mall and well over another hour, they didn't call, so me and my dad just went home. i laid in my bed for about 30 minutes and then they finally called to send us somewhere else.

I get there and this pretty damn hot nurse led me to the x ray room. (lol) they took an x ray again, and then they told me it was a small hairline fracture. they put me in a cast and told me to come back in a week so they can make sure it was healing. so now i am stuck in a cast, and out of lacrosse, so that really sucks. i will try and get pics of the x ray and arm and stuff.

Update 1: i couldn't get pics of the x ray, but i have a pic of my cast. the only options in color were blue , white, and orange. i wanted the orange one, but some doctor came in and took it for some poor little girl's leg. so i picked blue, since white is boring. it is this soft type of plaster that you cant write on which sucks, even though it very much doesnt look like it, so nobody will be signing my cast. oh well.

Update 2 : YAY i got my new pool in! and, i dont have to worry about getting my cast wet because i got this thing that covers the cast and seals tightly so i have nothing to wory about. i am so happy!

Update 3: went to the doctors today because they wanted to see the cover for when i go swimming. funny thing is, my cousin works there and he let me get an x ray to see how much longer i will need the cast. she said i can get the cast off in one more week and that my arm healed suprisingly fast. so i'll mark my calender cast off i one week hopefully, and wii fit in 2 days. cant wait!
