Mid-morning today, I got a call from Maddie. Uh oh! She told me that she was at school in the nurse's office, and she hurt her finger playing basketball. Panic! Maddie being a non-stop, full-speed athlete with her dad's propensity for bumping into things, she gets hurt often enough to know when things are pretty serious, and this was one of those times. The last time she hurt her finger playing basketball at school, it was broken. That was nearly 2 years ago. She said it felt like that. Grrrrrr....
We took a quick trip to Urgent Care and they confirmed it - a fracture on her left ring finger just below the middle knuckle. Damnit. This wipes her out for this weekend's friendlies, next weekend's tournament, and (depending on what the ortho says tomorrow) possibly the rest of our fall season.
Did I say I hate basketball? I do. I hate it.
I think it's time to contact Nerf about a full body suit for an 11yo...
