we're gonna find out...
pulled up to the school this afternoon to pick up the girls and i couldn't help but notice that kaely was in a wheelchair...what?! i was still like 5 cars back and almost ran over three of them to get close enough to where i wouldn't look like a total loon jumping out of the van to go get my baby. her teacher grimly informed me that kaely took a tumble down the stairs while trying to get away from a boy who was harassing her :( and grrr all at the same time. i did some basic first aid until i could get her to urgent care. she told me that she jumped the last two steps trying to get away from the other kid, landed on her ankle, and he and his friends laughed at her and kept walking. o. m. g.
at urgent care, the doctor did an xray of her ankle. the swelling is over the growth plate and his concern is that it may be fractured and that doesn't always show up in an xray. he put her in a splint and gave her crutches. motrin and rest. follow up with her pediatrician next week.

We may have a fractured growth plate at our house too. In the wrist. We get a follow up xray tomorrow. Hope all is well with your girl
