I took Micah to the orthopedist to follow up on his ER visit. Turns out, he has a buckle fracture. He fractured his radius and his ulna. There are 2 breaks in the radius- a horizontal one as well as a vertical one the extends into his growth plate. He got a cool red cast that will be on for a month. After that, he will have a splint and will also have to be xrayed occasionally to check the situation with the growth plate. We are praying it won't be an issue and that things will heal quickly and correctly.
He is a real trooper! He is back up and running...literally!
