My elbow is fractured because my classmate, Rishi, accidentally pushed me while he was playing catching with other boys. The lady in the office sprayed something on my arm and told me it was a muscle pull. Mummy said the lady at the office should not have assumed it was a muscle pull because if she rubbed a fracture too hard, it would have been displaced and I would have to go for an operation to fix it.My mother brought me to my doctor and I had to have an x-ray done. The x-ray report said that there was no obvious fracture. To be safer, the doctor asked us to visit a bone specialist to check my arm because I was in alot of pain. Before we went to the bone specialist, Mummy brought me to have lunch at Ajisen Ramen to cheer me up.
When the bone specialist saw my x-ray results, he said I had fractured my elbow. It was a minor injury, but he had to my arm in a cast and gave me a sling to wear. He said the cast had to be on for three weeks but it would only heal for about 73% after those three weeks. For these two more weeks I can't do a lot.

Hello Lachlan,
Is your arm better now? The injury must have dampen the holiday somewhat.
You were very brave and endured the pain well. We can start you on the rollerblading lessons in another couple of mths to make sure your elbow has fully-recovered. Remember to wear your elbow guard.
