Grandpa Doc Saves the Day!
Hannah had her first major fall last night. It wasn't even such a major fall, it was just the way she fell that caused her to dislocate her elbow on her left arm. It took us a while to figure out what hurt her, her wrist, her fingers, her arm. Then we realized her arm was limp. We called my dad and he immediately knew what had happened so he came over. He was able to get her elbow back in place. She was so brave. Once the fear and pain went away she calmed down and by the end of the night she was crawling and laughing. It was scary and hard to watch her in pain but thank God Grandpa Doc was able to make it better and save us a trip to the emergency room. We learned that now she will be more susceptible to that type of injury. This is quite a common injury amongst kids 1 -4. FYI the main cause of this is pulling a child or lifting a child by their hands.
