Emergency Room for Kirstyn
Today we had a bit of a scare… Kirstyn was singing and dancing around the house while I was out mowing the lawn and she rolled her ankle really bad! I didn’t hear her yelling, but I happened to look over at the sliding glass door and saw her laying on the floor trying to get my attention! I ran in and took a look. We thought it might be broken, so after a couple hours of watching it, we took her to the emergency room where the did x-rays and the works. Poor girl! Turns out it’s a severe sprain (almost torn). They gave her a boot and told her she had to wear it and try to stay off of it as much as possible (but to use crutches to get around). She was devastated as they have a couple of BIG marching band competitions coming up! 🙁 She’s bound and determined to march regardless, so we’ll see how it goes!
One funny thing that happened while we were there is that the x-ray technician working at the hospital that night actually recognized Ben (she did his head scan when he cracked his skull) and asked him how he was doing! 🙂 That’s what we love about living here! 🙂 He told her his head was all better and that we now have covers on the window wells. 🙂
