On top of everything else I just posted earlier, Alicia hurt her ankle while she was playing outside this afternoon. It started to swell and hurt to walk on it, and when ice/heat/elevation didn't do anything - and the swelling got worse - Craig took her to the ER.

Turns out she's got a dancer's fracture. Splint for now, then tomorrow we call her GP, get her to a bone specialist and get it cast.

On the first day of summer. As Pepper said, it's just like that episode of the Simpsons where Bart broke his leg on the first day of summer. And this is on top of her pink eye this week. I really need to make it up to her.

Poor girl. Not her week!!
I had a broken arm during Xmas when I was 3, so I totally relate to the frustration of limited play potential.
You guys are welcome to my chocolate stash. :)

That's terrible! Poor Alicia. I hope it won't affect the travel plans.

Oh no! Poor kid. A cast is so limiting. Cast signing party?

Aww :( I'm sorry to hear the little lady is having so many not good things. Definitely needs hugs and love (in addition to modern medicine). Let her know that many of us are sending our sympathy and hopes for a quick recovery.

Poor Alicia. I hope she is only in a cast for a short time.
