one saturday afternoon, jenny was at the playground, climbing on the jungle gym. Look at me, mommy! She called suddenly jenny lost her balance, she fell down to the ground, bumping the back of her head and landing ******* her left arm. Jenny's arm hurt, So did her head. Her mother thought she ought to see a doctor right away. Jenny and her mother took a taxi to the emergency room at a nearby hospital. The doctor who examined jenny's arm decided to take X rays. He needed to know if jenny had a broken bone. Jenny was nervous but she didn't feel a thing. When the machine took the X ray picture, the doctor studied the picture of the bone and jenny's arm. You have a hairline fracture, jenny, he said, it's just a tiny break, but we'll have to put your arm in a cast for a while. Will the cast hurt, jenny asked, not a bit, the doctor replied. In the plaster room, another doctor gently wrapped jenny's arm in bandages, covered with wet, gooey plaster. When the plaster dries, said the doctor, The cast will be stiff and hard. It will hold your arms still so the bone will be able to mend itself. Jenny's arm didn't hurt anymore, but her head still egged and she felt dizzy. The doctors decided she should stay in the hospital overnight. A clerk in the admitting office made a name bracelet for jenny to wear on her wrist. Then jenny's mother talked to her father on the phone. He said he was coming over right away.
