Sami's Trip to the Hospital

In early August, I was walking with Sami up the stairs to put her to bed. I was holding on to her hand and she was jumping up the stairs. She slipped as she landed on a stair and I yanked her arm to keep her from falling. She immediately screams in pain and I let her go. She grabs her arm and walks up the stairs into her room crying. I checked her arm and she screamed in pain any time I moved it. I was convinced that I had broke her arm. Stacey and I ended up taking her to the emergency room. The doctor checked her arm and thought there was some swelling in her wrist and decided the wrist was broken. So, they took her in to get some x-rays. Of course, they had to move her arm in several different positions to get the pictures they wanted, and of course she screamed bloody murder. We finally calmed her down and got her back into her room to await the results. While we were sitting there we noticed she moved her arm and did not have pain. We asked to move her arm, but she was too afraid, so we got her mind off the pain and tricked her into moving her arm. We showed her that her arm no longer had pain and she started repeating "my Arm is fixed!". She was so excited. I found the doctor, had her check her arm, and then discharged us. Turns out she had Nurse Maids Elbow which is just a tendon that can get out of place on little children. The x-ray tech moved it back into place when taking x-rays. I was so happy that I did not break her arm... But she always goes to bed when I tell her to...
