...because he broke is arm (radius). He's in a splint 'til Monday when they re-xray the ulna because it is too swollen to see if that is broke also (suspect it is). Then he'll get his cast...4-6 weeks.

Oh yeah. He was playing jickball at school yesterday and slid into 1st base. Didn't have the heart to tell him you don't have to slide into first.

Chicks dig scars, and presumably casts too. Don't they?

How old is the little guy? If he's under 10 it's probably what the medics call a "green-stick fracture"; he'll probably heal quickly and with no after-effects.

And yeah — the cast will make him extremely über-cool for a while.

I hope it's not his writing arm. Did his team win?

He don't need no steenkin' cast! Just patch him up with some stamps! :wink: :wink: :wink:

Poor Tony. :( BTDT, had the cast almost up to my shoulder til they recast it just on my forearm. At least casts nowadays are much lighter and colorful. They're tough to write on...but you can decorate them with stickers. :oops: :lol:

Feel better and mend quickly, Tony!! :)

Chucks dig Tony in general.

He still likes boogers and stamps!
