Nee Naa Nee Naa... Emergency! Emergency!

From boring to way too exciting! That's what happened this week. It was a quiet peaceful regular kind of afternoon. Play time was fun, standing, crawling, tipping over Pip's water bowl. The usual kind of stuff. Then came bath time! Woo! Splishy splashy, watery fun. Until I tried to climb out of the bath. Dad tried to stop me, of course, but this time was different. So very very different. My arm didn't like being held in that way, so it complained to me and I complained to everyone in hearing range. A quick call to the 24 hour nurse and then a ride into town to see the nice people at the hospital. Well half of them were nice, the other half looked sore and tired.
I didn't have a very good time waiting for the doctor to see me. I managed to fall a sleep a few times but I kept waking up because my arm was sore. Got to see the Doc at around 11pm... they seemed to think that I had a dislocated elbow... which isn't very nice, but not as bad as having it put back in the right way. Left the hospital at 2am... quite a late night for everyone. My arm has been sore for a day and a bit now. I wasn't using it properly this morning, so we took another trip to see the nice doctors. They were much less busy this time, so we didn't have to wait for very long. They gave me some more medicine and I started to feel much better. Not ready to crawl up Mount Wellington yet.
