Still Standing!!

So this is how the story begins: Saturday March 20th Tristin was at Scout Overnighter and they just happen to go Sledding, He fell off and hit a tree.  He said he was in instant PAIN. His leaders swore to us that it wasn't broken and that Tristin was the TOUGHEST kid, he barely complained. They brought him home he said he couldn't touch it or move his left leg at all. But still no complaining. We did all the normal stuff ICE packs, and laying on the couch alot of that. We are so BLESSED to have a great neighbor who is a DR. (Dr. DAVE) and on Sunday night at 10 o'clock at night he come over to take a look. He said for sure it needs an x-ray. So Monday morning I got other kids off to school and we went to the hospital for x-rays. Sure enough the bottom of this Femur was fractured. Now it is a waiting game, which we have played several times before with other broken bones in our family. He will see the Ortho Pedic. Surgeon on Monday too see what they can do. Options 1. (let it heal on its own) 2.(remove the bone that is detached) 3.(surgery to put a pin in).
Which ever one it happens to be we will be prepared. Tristin's FAITH is so strong he said he knows the Lord will heal him, and that he will be just fine, and back to NORMAL soon.  Just in 5 days I can tell you a THOUSAND things I am more AWARE of that he did for me and OUR family. So I hope he HEALS fast!!
