Funny, we were just discussing last night that my oldest probably needed to wear a helmet when he was younger with all the falls he took and now my youngest needs a kevlar body suit, or at least gloves.

You've just reminded me that the doctor was telling him not to make any important decisions for 12 hours after the anesthesia. I wanted him to vow his eternal love, so I could videotape it. He wouldn't take the bait, dammit. What fun is that??<br /><br />Heather: I know! I liked Kim's idea of the bubble wrap. Kind of an early warning system...when you hear the <b>*POP!*</b> you know you're getting too rough. Yes, I'm thankful that he didn't need any actual surgery.<br /><br />Lou!: Look everybody!

He can't write for the next 4 weeks, so you can imagine how much he's struggling. I can't stand it.<br /><br />Wendy Blum: Aw, honey...no worries. If I'm gonna share my world with you guys, there's naturally gonna be some questions. We divorced in 2005 after almost 20 years of marriage & now live about an hour away from each other. Ex is very involved with da boys...and we <i>do</i> share responsibility...esp. when stuff like this happens. I insisted on going to take care of Taylor. It's a Mommy-thing...no-one can take care of him like I can! It's sweet of you to take an interest. I appreciate it!<br /><br />TC: I'm glad you <i>totally</i> understand. You and I definitely think the same! The drive up and back was really much better than it would have been during the day.

They use an ongoing x-ray to snap it back into place. I'm just glad it's over.<br /><br />Susan F: Thank you, sweets! And of course, I agree. I especially like the little dimple in his chin.<br /><br />Alicia: Ha! Yeah, well...I had <i>other</i> photos I could have used, so Taylor got off easy! And yes, Connor's a pretty easy going kid.

I was secretly surprised and pleased when I saw him track through here on Sunday, so I'm hoping he's seen some of the comments.<br /><br />Smileyfreak: YAY! Now, he just has to get his hand working again, so he can take notes and tests at school!<br /><br />ValleyWriter: HA! Yeah, he's my Humpty-Dumpty...only much cuter and not nearly as round. (Get it? "Put back together again...?") I can't wait to see if they charge something for having the surgeon "on standby".

I am totally on board. I'll go halfsies with you on the rolls. Now, shall we roll their arms <i>separate</i> from their bodies, or is that too marshmallow-man-like??<br /><br />Mark Price: HA! Between your suggestion on Tay receiving a bionic arm (YES, I brought this up while the doctor was examining him) and this one, you've given Taylor a much-needed laugh. You, mister...are the male comic perspective...personified!<br /><br />Oddyoddyo13: Um, sorry about that. It didn't even occur to me! And see?

Even though it was a success. Nice to know they knock a person out for that. I've never broken anything. Was it so obvious?<br />I would like to ask you a very personal question, Kathryn. And if you don't answer, I promise I won't stop reading your blog :)<br />You do A LOT for your boys and with your boys. I was thinking that in one of your blogs you mentioned something about your husband? Where is he when all of this serious stuff happens? Does he help out? Please forgive me if he has passed away. I am a curious person by nature. Some times I have wondered about his existence before. Whew! That wasn't so bad :)<br />Once again, I am glad all is well in Kathrynville.wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08737799277071093390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6370763014722326902.post-64924891793125867052010-09-05T16:46:24.473-07:002010-09-05T16:46:24.473-07:00Awww. hope he feels better.

And you probably did save a little money since they didn't cut him open, since there probably would've been separate bills for the person who cuts, the person who puts pins in, the person who sewed him back up, etc. (or at least it seems like that's how the medical system works!).<br /><br />I hope you get a break soon!
