Ohiobucks Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 ...dislocated her elbow last Saturday night, jumping on a friends trampoline.....at midnight.....with flashlights....with 3 others girls at the same time....while her friends parents "supervised"....?? :confused: Doctors took xrays and said it was completely dislocated with a small fracture on her growth plate. Her softball season is over for this year, she'll be in a soft cast for 2 weeks then a removable splint for 3-4 weeks after that. On another note, she is a trooper for sure, never shed a tear through the whole process. The actual dislocation, IV and a local shot, etc.... She is feeling 100% better now though. Here is my sad little girl in the ER: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeramie Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Ouch! Dislocations are horrible! That girl is a real trooper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Looks like she's feeling no pain in the pic Tom. Heart goes out to little Hailey, that's for sure. You guys won't meet a cheerier little girl, she's a real doll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckee Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 OUCH..I felt that. Sorry to hear that Tom. When are people going to learn it's not safe to have more than one person on the trampoline at a time? It's just an accident waiting to happen. Hope Hailey heals up good, and completely. Those injuries can come back to haunt you later on in life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LifeNRA Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 From the looks of that picture, it must have been her left elbow, OUCH! Maybe them parents need to get the net that goes around it! Also, tell them to stay off of it in the dark! Hope she feels better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest outdoorgirl Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Sorry to hear your daughter got hurt I have nothing good to say about trampolines because i know of a young man that got hurt on one and messed up his leg so bad he will never walk normal again with countless surgery's and talks about amputation in the future. Please keep a watchful eye on your young ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
