Isaac's bad injury frm the fall

Isaac was fine yesterday and not cranky so i din't bring him to c the pd for a review. But there's a significant swelling on his collarbone and shoulder. He din't move much of his left hand. Last nite, he started to cry while asleep almost every now and then. Decided to take him for an x-ray the next morning. Jason called for urgent leave last nite also. If unapprove, i need to wake up earlier at 7 and bring isaac alone. Only managed to sleep at 3+am due to isaac's cries but funny i auto woke up at 7am. Maybe i'm too worried for isaac. Jason's leave approved and we left home early to c the pd coz it's saturday, sure super packed.


We are no. 1 in the queue and pd advised us to bring isaac for an x-ray. We took mrt to HPB. It's damn hot and quite xin ku to carry isaac under the hot sun as it's quite a distance. We waited 30mins for our turn. Isaac started to cry after i took off his shirt as the room's very cold. He cried harder as the nurse tried to position his hand for the x-ray. She took 3shots. Finally it's over. I quickly put on his shirt. I was so emotional and heartpain to see him cry just now. The x-rays ready within minutes and the nurse commented isaac's bones are okie.


But when we went back to see the pd, he said otherwise. Looking at the x-rays, he said there's a possibility that isaac's hving a hairline crack in the bone. He referred us to a orthopaedic doc at TMC. Like tat, the pd's bill is $120!!! Damnit why so ex with just 3pc of x-ray, saying a few words n referring an orthopaedic?! Sigh....


We took a cab to TMC coz the pd booked the appt for us at 11am which is less than 20mins time. Jason and i hvn't had breakfast yet so i quickly went to get a burger and eat on the way there. The OP, Dr William Verhoeven, very nice doc, told us the same thing tat isaac is having a hairline crack. He suggests to bandage isaac's left hand but we told him isaac hates restrictions and bandaging his left hand will result him to struggle more to attempt to shake off the bandage and worsening the injury. So he said okie to go without the bandage. But we shd try to avoid or cut down his left hand movement. OP bill's $50. I need to bring isaac back next week for another review. It'll take a while for the crack to recover. I hope he can recover fast coz i really can't bring myself to see him go thru another x-ray session, exposing him to another round of radiation.
