And he's loving it!!! LOL:D

(I think that Mom's loving it too!!!!)

You're so right...lol He got out of mowing the yard this weekend...Dad is doing it, but once the cast is on, he should be able to use the rider just fine. LOL he is so thrilled......not!

I guess that he'd better enjoy being waited on because it sounds like it's going to come to an end!!! (Until he looks at Mom with little sad eyes!!)

Dear Janet,

I just came onto 4WT and am so sorry for your son! You also - it sounds like they're not up to speed on patient care, nor on how to tell a parent that their child has been hurt.

I hope he's not in pain and that it heals real soon so that he can fully enjoy the summer. It does sound like the two of you are getting some quality time together
though!

Happy Mother's Day, and prayers are coming,

Here it is Monday and he finally got a cast on it. It happened Thursday morning. He broke what is called the scaphoid bone in his wrist. It's located at the bottom of the thumb in the wrist. I'm posting a link and it is the letter "A".

He'll get the cast off the 26th of June. So much for finding a summer job. They'll most all be taken and then he'd only be able to work a month and a half if that. He is wanting a job so bad...he loves making his own money.

Janet, I worked as a nurses aide with a cast on my wrist. I bet there are many jobs he could do too if he wants to badly enough.

I'm glad he got his cast so hopefully you can relax a bit. LOL

I'm glad he was finally able to get his cast! That must make both of you feel so much better!!

I'm sorry that he is down about a summer job, but as Tink said, there are probably still lots of jobs he could do even with a cast. Maybe you and he can spend a day going job hunting. :)

He's going to try to find something. He loves making money and loves spending mine....LOLOL I think he is planning on going Saturday morning to a few places. He knows it will take some time, but is hoping to have something lined up by the time school it out. 8 1/2 more days!!!!
