Okay, Wednesday has proved to be just another ordinary day, except no basketball! So, I was trying to think about what I could blog when really we didn't have anything exceptional happen today. Well, for Project 365 it doesn't always have to be pictures of what you did that day, it can also be a memory that the particular day envokes. Today is the 11th, it is exactly 5 months ago that Baylee broke her arm. Most everyone knows that she broke both bones in her arm cheerleading at her very first football game. If you know Baylee very well you know that she has ALWAYS wanted to be a cheerleader and this was definetly not in her plans. She was doing a series of back handsprings, which she had done all night, and I guess she landed one wrong because when she got up her arm bent like this...
Not exactly how an arm is supposed to look. But my little girl is an absolute trooper, never shedding a tear...instead she kept smiling through the whole thing!
I don't think she really felt like smiling, but she smiled. She is so tough! We went to the ER in Snyder where they sent us on to Lubbock. When we left Snyder we were told because of the severity of the break she would have to surgery that night. In Lubbock her doctor told us he felt sure that he could set the bones...well, if only to go back in time...needless to say 5 months later her bones have not healed correctly and we still are not 100% sure that we will avoid surgery. Only problem with surgery now is it will be a much more complicated and painful process. We are still hopeful that with each visit to the doctor the arm will heal a little more and surgery will become a faint option.
