When you come down a little bit too hard on one hand in a flick-flick on beam and your Pediatrician doesn't have in-house x-ray you get to take a non emergency trip to the Emergency Room.
(We are so spoiled to live this close to such a wonderful children's hospital!)
Second finger to the end right on the joint.
Super quick set of x-rays proved it was only a bad sprain, as apposed to a good sprain....not sure. The ER doc filling in as our Ped's was wonderful. In taking her history he joked, "So the high blood pressure and the ulcer compliment her type A personality. I bet she is a great gymnast."
So all is well except one minor thing... before we went in I said grab a book to keep yourself busy while we wait and she picked a Sign Language book. Really, was that the best choice under the circumstances?!
