The adjustment in dealing with a broken bone has been a little easier this time. First, because we just did this. Second, he is in a cast from the start vs a splint so we don’t have to restrict him quite as much. Third, Z is already used to being more gentle with him. Squashing the constant wrestling the first time around was tough.

On the day Jonah broke his arm, I pulled in to the campground to pick them up in the truck. Z flung open the front door to the RV and declared “MOMMA! JONAH BROKE!” Oh sweet boy.

Jason was home alone with the kids and I was on my way to shoot a session. He called and I quickly turned around. After our last experience we went straight to Children’s. It was…..ok. Not great but he’s ok and the reduction was successful. He is in a big plaster cast for awhile, then he will move to fiberglass as some point. Total cast time will be at least 3 months this […]
