to x-rays

After the Easter party was over, Bryce and I were on our way to the doctor. A week or so ago he jumped off of Aunt Mary's trampoline and started complaining that his ankle hurt later on that evening. It was swollen huge. I figured it was just sprained or very bruised, but after a week or more it still bothered him after he was on it alot and it would get very swollen, black and blue and he wouldn't want to walk on it or put weight on it, so I decided to get an x-ray just in case. When the NP measured it today and compared it to the non-hurt ankle, it was swollen 2 1/2 inches more. Even so, thank goodness there is no break or fracture and instead he has a bad sprain and was just have to keep it wrapped up in an ace bandage, apply ice when it gets swollen and give him Motrin if it starts hurting him.
The women at the diagnostic place thought he was too cute and thought he would enjoy being wheeled around in the wheelchair. He thought that was cool but still played his gameboy while he waited.
