tomorrow he goes to the orthopedic surgeon for the full cast... right now he's in a splint and a sling... the sling he keeps pulling off over his head, so Ryan has been trying to rig something with another piece of string added to the sling...

aw, Char.... that sucks. I hope they gave him something for pain...elbows hurt! My SIL is epileptic and hurt herself (and others!) many, many times as a child and young adult. She is quite stable now but she takes enough meds to drop a horse in order to be that way. I have had two grand mal seizures myself (not epilepsy but they call it "abnormal epileptiform activity" or something like that) so I know it can be so scary and upsetting!
I wonder if you could wrap an ace/tensor bandage around Michael and his arm in the sling to keep the arm close to his body - or would he find that too constricting?? I hope you are feeling a bit better too and are able to get some good rest tonight...
