Thursday night's trip to the E.R. was followed up by another visit on Friday night. Unfortunately, there was a scramble to get Daniel's medical records from the hospital to his pediatrician on Friday. By the time they received the records, it was too late to be referred to an Orthopedic doctor. The pediatrician did not want us to wait over the weekend without seeing someone, so he instructed us to drive down to Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital. Turns out they didn't have an Orthopedic doctor on staff, but they did take more x-rays and put a much better splint on his arm, so it wasn't a wasted trip. We were home by 10pm. Daniel, once again, proved to be a real little trooper.

Lisa, I just love your blog. My husband and I are trying to adopt and it really helps me to read your very candid postings. I love that it is so real and you "tell it like it is". Thank you for this and congratulations on your lovely family!
