Yesterday the kids were singing and playing Ring Around the Rosie, that circle dance thing, and then EJ started crying profusely. She kept saying her right wrist was hurting and she kept it cradled in her lap. We put ice on it and hoped that the pain would go away, but it was obvious that something was wrong. Grace took her to PM Pediatrics, a walk-in urgent care center for children in Forest Hills and EJ was diagnosed with Nursemaid’s elbow, a stretched out ligament. The doctor bent EJ’s elbow and she was all better. Thank the Lord her arm wasn’t broken or fractured! And did you know that Ring Around the Rosie is an old song about the Bubonic Plague? lol!
