What a way to spend baseball season.  I signed Hayden up for basball on Saturday, and on Monday he crashes his bike and breaks his leg!  I took him to urgent care, and they tell me it is just a pulled MCL.  So he goes two weeks with a brace on.  At that point he still can't put any pressure on it so we go to a sports therapist and he sends back to the orthopedic surgeon.  Sure enough it is broken, at the knee...at the growth plate.  Since it has already been over two weeks, they give him the option of a brace or cast.  He chose the brace so he can take it off to scratch and bathe.  What a trooper.  He went around school for six weeks using crutches.  Very difficult, but he toughed it out!
