EMERGENCY ROOM


As you can see Bergen fell on the trampoline. Total disconnect at the elbow along with a complete fracture (the crooked piece) to the right arm. It was scary as Bergen's arm looked like a pink sock with 2 sticks shoved in it sideways. No bone went thru the skin but you would think is was about to. His wrist is at the top of the X-ray image while his elbow is at the bottom.

Bergen now has a blue cast for about 8 weeks(?) with some pain to deal with but he is OK. We are all thankful for the ER people as they did a great job at getting it fixed without surgery.
