Emergency Room

The day started off great...started, but didn't end that way!


I did my usual Saturday morning gymnastics. I love gymnastics, especially the part where I get to jump on the trampoline. So I was excited to go to my cousin Benjamin's B-day party where he had a trampoline. I was on it for 5 to 10 minutes with my cousin Katy when I got hurt. I didn't fall off, just landed on it wrong. Everyone thought that maybe I just got scared when I fell. But after a while, when I couldn't even walk and wouldn't stop crying they knew I was seriously hurt.


We went to the local ER near by in Kingwood and did several X-rays. I kept complaining about my knee, but the X-ray doesn't show anything on my knee even though swollen. It shows that I have an injured or rotated hip. I might have a sprained knee too, but nothing the X-ray could show with the knee. I have not moved my whole left leg since it happened. I just layed in the hospital bed. If I barely moved it, I cried in pain.


After many hours in the ER, they sent me home with a shot of codeine. I have to follow up with the Orthopedic to see what happens next. Keep me in your prayers for a speedy recovery!
