COUGAR ON THE MEND

So, last night we were in Putnam City with the Cougars playing in the All City Playoffs. This was our first game of hopefully 3. During the 4th qtr after a tackle Cameron was injured. He was crying like I've never heard so I knew it was more than just a bump or bruise. 2+ hours in the ER at Deaconess it's confirmed he has broken both bones, just above the left wrist. They ER doc said it looked pretty clean but we would need to follow up with the orthopedic specialist in 3-4 days after the swelling goes down. Let me just tell you the amazing support this little dude has. Since we had to leave the game early we kept receiving texts updating us on the game and to let us know when the boys would go into the huddle they said Cameron's name on 3. After a team prayer was said for him too. Then almost the entire team stopped by the ER on their way home just to give Cameron a hug and say hi. Sweetest thing ever. I was moved to tears. As if that's not enough, we get home after midnight to our front door decorated in writing from his friend Noah (Momma Cyndi helped too) & a cute gift from Bryce and his family. It had candy and a handy dandy football pillow that will be perfect for elevating the arm. Everyone was over the top thoughtful and it spoke volumes to us.

Cameron will be out 6 weeks but his team will be playing in game #2 because they ended up winning the game 23-0.

Little guy was in some pain. Deaconess ER was awesome!
