POOR BABY



So one of Josh's friends came into town this week to go snowboarding, and since Monday was a holiday Josh decided to go with him. The last thing I said to him was "don't be stupid I know how boys can get." So I was working on a patient and saw my phone was ringing from Josh. I knew there had to be only reason he was calling while he should of been snowboarding. When I finally got a second to call he told me they were on there second run of the day and he was going over a roller and when he landed, part of his board caught an edge and he landed on his shoulder(heard it pop), and he was on his way down to Provo to have it looked at because he thought he might of separated it. So i got off work a little early to find that the BYU clinic was closed because it was a holiday. I guess they didn't think anyone would get hurt or sick that day!! So we went the next day, they took an x-ray of it and all the bones were in good shape, no broken bones. He said he thinks it was a contusion-- whatever that it. I think it means an internal bruise, but what do i know. He told him to ice it and then after 48 hours he would be able to put heat on it. If there is still any pain in 2 weeks then it is most likely something to do with his ligaments-- so we will all cross our fingers its not that. He seems to be doing a little better but i guess we will see in 2 weeks. To be honest I think the first thing that went through my mind when he called was good thing he and I both have insurance and that we would probably be paying medical bills as long as we are paying student loans. I guess when it rains it pours!!!

  1. I love the look on his face. Josh did you take acting classes? Just kidding. I am glad that you are feeling better or at least that it wasn't really serious :)
