Ugh Nora, I hope he gets treated soon. Much ~ma to you and Tom.
Giles! I accidentally killed Spike. That's okay, right?

Doctor came in and disappeared again. We'll see what happens next.

If it's a break, I think it'll be more like a hairline fracture. They just gave him a couple Vicodin and wheeled him to get xrays done. He's in a shitload of pain though, whatever the hell it is. Poor guy.

Le n, depends on if it needs to be set. When I broke my arm a few years ago, it was not out of place, just broken. No setting needed. They made me wear a splint for a couple days before getting a cast, to make sure it didn't swell inside a cast and like, cut off circulation, or un-swell (?) and then the cast would be too big. but like I said--that was a break that didn't need to be set. I think if it's that kind of bad break they probably do want to move it back to the right spot sooner rather than later.

Oh no, Nora!! I'm so sorry Tom is hurting. And I'm also sorry that your ER experience was no better than the one we had a few months ago.

So much ~ma for Tom and Nora. I'm so sorry you're having a such an awful ER visit, and I hope no bones are broken.
Can I have some more ~ma for my cousin? The baby is doing great, but she is having some difficulties post delivery.

Diagnosis: broken arm, or more technically, fractured radial head (which is a misleading phrase for broken arm!)
He's got a splint, which is a bit more hardcore than I thought it would be. He's following up with an orthopedic surgeon right now, who he's supposed to see in 2-3 days, I imagine to look at it after any swelling's gone down and work out the proper rehabilitation of the arm.
We got out of the ER at around 2:30am and I'm home with Tom today.
I'm mostly just glad it's his arm that's broke and not his noggin.
