GRANDBABY BROKE HER LEG

So last Thursday I was to babysit 2 1/2 year old granddaughter Grace while her mother went to the funeral of an old friend. The 31 year old friend had liposuction, developed a blood clot and died.

Thursday morning daughter-in-law calls to say that she may or may not make the funeral, that she was taking Grace to the doctor. The night before Grace fell off the bed and is still refusing to put wait on her leg. So they went to the pediatrician, the x-ray showed a bad break to her right femur, and he sent her to an orthopedic surgeon. The orthopedic surgeon decided he didn't have what it takes to fix her, so he sent her by ambulance to Arkansas Children's Hospital in Little Rock. Grace is now in a body cast (stylish in hot pint) and will remain that way for 4 weeks.
