Devin broke his wrist!!!

Over the weekend Devin was playing outside at the park and was on a hose (that the kids had hung from one side of the slide to the other side and made a swing) he decided to get on the hose while 2 older boys were swinging it and he flew off and landed on his wrist wrong. We looked at it and thought he had just sprained it really bad because he could move his wrist and his elbow just fine except that it hurt. So Monday morning I called to get him in and they said to bring him to the ER. While in the ER they took and Xray and determined that he had broke his wrist, so they put this splint on it so he would stop moving it and allow the swelling to go down so they could cast it.
Got his cast on today! The doctor decided he needed to have a full arm cast so that he wouldnt beable to move his wrist at all. He had a one week check-up and another Xray and decided he would have to keep the cast until October 3rd. On the 3rd of October he will go back and have the cast removed and take another Xray. Depending on what the doctor says he will either be all done with having a cast or he may have to have a short arm cast. Devin is really hopeing the doctor will say he doesnt have to have another cast.
