During her soccer game this evening, Marilu collided with an opposing player and hit the ground extremely hard. She couldn't get up due to severe pain in her shoulder/neck area so they had to call an ambulance for her. After a couple of hours at the emergency room, we found out she had a small crack on her collarbone. It will heal on its own over a 4-6 week period, but for now, Marilu has to wear a sling to keep her arm level. She's in quite a bit of pain still, but the doctor gave her a Percocet prescription and said the worst of the pain should go away after 2-3 days.
Many, many thanks go out to our friend Tracey for taking Lucas home with her from the soccer game and letting him stay over for the night. He took the whole ordeal like a champ and based on a photo Tracey sent us, he was having a blast. Come to think of it, this might be his first sleepover.
The kicker about this whole situation is that we came home from vacation yesterday so that Marilu could play the game tonight. So the moral of the story is that you should never come home from vacation. Or something like that. Speaking of which, vacation photos are forthcoming.
