Tyler's Arm


Yesterday we were over at Mr. Robbie's & Mrs. Katie's house.  The kids were running around behind their house.  I watched Tyler running toward me and tripped.  He landed on his arm in a funny way and I hear a "pop".  Super.  Tyler has always had a super high pain tolerance.  So the fact that he was upset about his arm told me that this was not good news.

As we checked into the ER, the nurse wanted to know his pain level.  He asked Tyler, "Which face shows your pain."  Tyler didn't get it, so he tried again.  "Show me which face looks like how you feel"  To this Tyler turned to me and said "I don't know, what does my face look like"  It was pretty cute and funny.

The X-Rays show no breaks- so it's just a sprain.  He doesn't use it.  He didn't even stim the rest of the day.  That told me- it really hurt!

I would think he would like the faces scale. Maybe he didn't quite understand it.
