sailor broke his arm on tuesday

he fell off the slide at school and smashed his elbow into a pole
cracked his funny bone (nothing funny bout that) and another fracture in his humerus bone (again no joke)

We took him to hospital where they gave him laughing gas which was the funniest thing i have seen in awhile, my 5 year old talking a mile a minute ...

poor darling has been in a great amount of pain but doing well ...  getting used to being one-handed. Left one-handed at that. We have to go to darwin on wednesday to get the specialists to see him and decide whether he needs pins, which is cool (not the pins but the free trip to darwin) ...  i am wondering how much civilisation ( eg : shopping ) I can get in in between appointments  hah
