Well, it’s not bad, but it’s broken. See that little piece hanging down there next the the arrow. I guess that’s not good. Blue got the splint today and the hard cast comes Monday or Tuesday. He’s excited about a cool cast and getting to play lots of video games. Baseball will have to wait this year. He’s still a tough one though. Just a little disappointed we didn’t get to bring the wheelchair home.

Blue is a tough kid. One time he shoved a vacuum extension down his throat, and bruised both sides of his throat. He still asked for a popsicle and just sucked on it and spit it out so he didn’t have to swallow. He’s usually never hurt, and has the reflexes of a drunken cat. You know, quick and agile but rubbery enough to bounce off stuff.

Well, yesterday Blue decided to jump off the coffee table over his baby brother and land on his oversized bean bag. What he didn’t count on was Cooper standing up and sticking his head in the way of Blue’s passing feet. Blue feet caught on Cooper’s head knocking Blue off balance and sending him landing right onto his right ankle. A loud pop, some screaming and crawling away, then some ice and calming down followed, but because of Blue’s tough history we are having a hard time telling just how bad it is.

This morning Blue still can’t walk. The swelling is minimal, but he’s not the type to not walk, so we are taking the next step. The emergency room. I will keep you updated and hopefully get some cool pictures.
