Parents Get Well Fairies for DD

[2gymmies]

Glad to hear all is well - my older dd has peeled on bars before and it can be scary - glad your dd is back at it. Hopefully your dd has learned her lesson about how to fall or at least how not to fall! I'm surprised it wasn't fractured if it was swollen. Our orthopedic guy says that most times when an elbow swells, it is fractured (between 2 girls we've had three broken arms - only one doing gymnastics). I'm very happy for you all that it was good news!

I've always heard the opposite about swelling and fractures. My sister broke her wrist one time roller skating and it didn't swell at all so my mom didn't believe her in how bad it was hurting. Then again I fractured my foot and it swelled up so much that it looked like a giant fake foot. It was unbelievable looking. Of course my main problem was that it was also sprained really badly.
