Thursday night; Emergency Department:
Me: Okay, mom, we got the x-ray results and it looks like L'k's'ha (name obviously changed, but it did have that many apostrophes in it in real life) did break her leg. She has a displaced spiral fracture involving both the tibia and fibula, which means that she broke both the bones of her lower leg and that the pieces of bone aren't lined up right anymore. I'm going to call orthopedics to come down and decide if she's going to get a cast or if they need to do an operation to line the bones up.
Mom: So, will she be cool to go to sports camp next week?
Me: Umm, I imagine it's actually going to take quite a bit longer than that to heal.
Mom: But it's not like she'd have to go Monday. . . camp doesn't start until Wednesday.
