a broken bison bone and a troll for a fiance....

ah yes. according to jaelynn, kelly has broken his bison bone. kids, arent they the darndest. actually, tuesday night, poop hit the fan and kelly ruptured his distal bicep muscle. only 5% of people do this. he has such a demanding job, very physically demanding. so you can see how he this could happen on the job. NOPE.

scene:
was a nice fall evening. we decided to take the kids for a walk to the park. the kids were running around on the playground, jae and kelly were chasing each other. jaelynn jumped on the merry-go-round and kelly went to spin her and reached back with his arm and *snap*, he heard it snap and felt it pop. he yelped 'agh, somethings not right' and immediately ripped off his shirt so i could look at his arms. sure enough, visibly to the naked eye, you could tell, something, wasnt right. what, i didnt really know. no bones were broken. hmm. he is now SCREAMING at me, 'what is wrong with me' and i am going, very calmly, 'i have no idea'. and him, 'YOUR A NURSE. YOUR SUPPOSED TO KNOW.' oh. really. so, after all this time, NOW you are going to give me the credit i deserve???? you see, he doubts my judgement on everything. he always second guesses me, always goes against what i say when it comes to this kind of stuff, but now suddenly, im supposed to know. wtf. so i called my work. asked one of my colleagues. she didnt know either. i was pretty sure it was a muscle tear-but what do they do???? we never get these in the OR, so 1) they are either uncommon, or 2)they aren't serious enough that they get admitted so they go thru day surgery so i never see them. so....the long and short of it....he ruptured his distal bicep muscle. and....he has to have surgery. wait...theres more....hes going to be off work for at least 6months.... major rehabilitation is required for this surgery, so he is really bummed.

so we went to his dr. appt this morning to find out when surgery was going to be, and i told him he couldnt have anything to eat or drink before hand-in case they wanted to do surgery today-because you have to be 'npo' which means you cant have eaten or drank in 8 hours. holy troll monster. grumpy with a capitol G. whoa. watch out. seriously, he was a force to be reckoned with. i was glad to dump him out of my car and go into work. sheesh. so, he has surgery on tuesday. he is soo nervous. :( i was able to get off so i can take him and be with him there, which will be nice. i was also able to pick the anesthesiologist i wanted on the case, so at least i now he has a good anesthesiologist and surgeon. :) and good nurse for afterward (me, of course! ;))

so yeah, it has been a crazy couple days....:/ and the weather is getting cold. i hate it. freezing at night time? what is that all about? not cool.
