November 7 - Broken Dreams
We had hoped to have a break-free year in 2006. In 2005, all four children made trips to the Emergency Room. Three kids had broken bones and the fourth child required stitches.
The tranquility that was 2006 was broken (literally) at 11:37 p.m. on Thursday, November 2. Sophia fell out of bed with a thud. The resident physician (her mother) gave her 2 Tylenols and put her back to bed. Dr. Frankenstein had better bedside manners.
The next morning, I suggested to Sophia that she buck it up and ”walk off the injury.” However, she was unable to lift her left arm without pain. It was off to the ER and the usual interview with Child Protection Services. As the X-rays confirmed, she had a broken left clavicle.
If all goes well, she will be able to recreate the below OSU Touchdown cheer in time for the michigan game on November 18.
Go Sophia and Go Bucks.

Hope Sophia is feeling better soon! I know a couple good therapist that can get her in shape by the 18th. Be on the lookout, I wouldn't be surpirsed if children's services doesn't have a stakeout down the street.
You better watch out, i know you are the physical type. Don't want anyone to think your abusive. Yeah Right
You have to learn to cheerlead with pain. I applaud your efforts.
It looks more like Sophia is asking for a TV time-out than for a TD.
