So about a week and a half ago Tyrone and I decided we were going to go out on a little date. We had gotten through dinner, and headed to walk around a couple of stores just spending time together. Well we noticed that we had missed two calls on our cell phone, and they were both from my dad. Now if any of you know my dad he is not one to call more than once. My husband even knew that and so he started freaking out just a little. My dad had left two messages, and after we listened to them we knew something was wrong. In my mind I was thinking no big deal he fell on something and is going to need a few stitches. Stitches aren't a big deal in my family everyone get them. Little did I know there was no blood envolved. So we called my parents and they said they were on the way to the ER because they think that Ty-kell has broken his arm. Okay I am still thinking no big deal he probably just spranged it or something. So I told them lets just take him to an Urgent Care, because they can do x-rays and it wont be as long of a wait. Because with my child after 1 hour with a doctor he is done. Done to the point of screaming and throwing his body around, and there is no calming him. So I thought a couple hours in Urgent Care would be better then five to seven in ER. So we found out that it was actually a broken arm and he got a splint. They want him to keep his arm in a sling, but the pediatric sling they had was the size of him, so I decided I would just make him one. I think it turn out pretty cute. Then about a week later because of insurance issues we finally got it casted. Then 2 days later we are back in Urgent Care because we know that Ty-kell has pneumonia again. So Tyrone on Saturday took Ty-kell to NextCare Urgent Care while I went to the cannery. When he was all done we were quite flustered because they told him "oh, he just has allergies". So fine, but by night he was running a higher fever then before and sounded aweful. So we took him to a different Urgent Care the one we went to for his arm. We love that Urgent Care so fast and friendly. And then they diagnosed him with Pneumonia. I didn't know that pneumonia could develop in less then 6 hours. So our poor little child has a broken arm and pneumonia.
We all decided to stay home on Sunday and rest!

I told Ty-kell to smile and this is the look I got.
He likes to pose cool!

I told him to smile... I think he is gettting better.
I told him to show me his green arm! I think he just realized it's green!
I asked him to show me a smile and he showed me his arm.
So needless to say I don't like NextCare, and I am greatful it is a waterproof cast. Ty-kell's favorite time of day is bathtime, and he can still have bathtime every so often.

I've been dealing with Bronchittis and borderline pnuemonia...so I've had to stay away from mom. It's been miserable. I'm so sorry Ty-kell is having to deal with that again. *kisses* I hope he feels better soon. And so sorry about his arm. It looks like he's taking it well. How did it happen? We'll keep him in our thoughts and prayers!
Poor kid!!! I can't believe he got pneumonia again!! Love the cast, wish we were close enough to sign it :)-get well soon baby ty-kell
