Broken

The first week in NL the kids spend a few days with my mom. Unfortunately for all of them Rick fell out of a (very low) bed, the wrong way and broke his collar bone. According to Rick he was 'dreaming too fast' and 'about horsies'. After 3 different doctors Rick had a sling for his arm and received a decent dosage of pain killer, my mom was no longer worried and more frustrated with the stupid organization at the hospitals and we could all laugh about it again. The break was clean, the difficult international insurance issues 'parked' for now and the request for follow up visits taken off the table.
 Jan won the prize for invention of the day, being left alone with Kaat during the hospital visit he could not get a new diaper to stay put on wiggly Kaat....unfaced he pinned it together retro style with od fashioned diaper pins -:)

Rick was not in too much pain, wanted no painkillers after the first time at the doctor and was out of his sling in 5 days. Must be my kid, never ever sick, just the occasional physical damage.
