what a last couple of days. On thursday my daughter was injured at school. This is my 10 year old neice that I adopted that was meth exposed prenatally and afterward in a meth house. She was in the wheelchair ya you may remember but she is also sooooooooo sensative to pain (remember when she was a baby and you touched her she got hives?) so any little bit of pain is a crisis. The school never called me and sent home a note. She had triped over another child and her stomach was black and blue already her arms are scraped in an area about 7 inches long. She also hurt her hand wrist area. So I take her to the er for her arm and they take an x ray and blood tests to check for internal bleeding and 6 hours later the dr pokes his head in and says all fine just sprained wrist you can go. No splint no nothing but its 11 pm so we go home and all night she screams and cries and the next am I take her to her peds dr and she wraps it in a splint says sometimes a fracture doesnt show up right away on the xray so keep an eye on it. So she scream all day and all night and the next day (today) I take her back to walk in and say hey something needs to be done. So the dr takes a long time feeling her hand and wrist while she screams and says well were it is swollen and bruised there is a bone that is common to break that usually wont show up on the xray so I am pretty sure its broken but what we do for this bone is splint but a different type so she gives her a splint that holds her thumb still and she can move her fingers the bone is under the thumb I think. What do yu know???? As soon as its immobilized she smiles and says thats better. She is still in some pain but better. Then afterward this place we rent to own her bed and our dryer comes and takes them back because I am very angry at how I was treated by this new guy I have been a customer for years but this guy was so rude and mean and so now she has no bed we have no dryer. However someone on craigs list is giving me a dryer if I pick it up. Plus there are many options for a bed.
Im tired and stressed and feel like crying. I guess that this is normal stress though so I am glad that its stress that other people face too not lik the ptsd stuff. ((HUG)) sigh
