X is for X-RAY
What to do there: Look online at x-rays of skeletons (human or animal). Describe the skeleton from head to foot. Imagine the life of two skeletons (human or animal). Tell the story of how their two worlds intersected before death or before injury.
Why it’s good for you: Imagine lives before they have been reduced to breaks or bones.
X is also for: Xylem
We rushed into the x-ray room, they didn’t have my brother sit in the waiting room as you could see his bone through the skin. My brother was in crazy tears, he didn’t know what to do it he was in so much pain, he sat there in the x-ray room feel nauseous. He was scared but in so much pain. I felt so worried. My brother had fell of his bike on a cement path way by our house and could not move his arm. His bone was popping out of the skin and he had to be rushed to the hospital as soon as possible.
While I was waiting outside they took my brother and mom to do some quick scans and x-rays of his arm. They said since this is a open wound a surgery may needed to be performed which terrified my brother even more. After they took the shots of the arm, they showed us it was clearly shown the bone was collapsed in half and there was a big gap between the two bones.
My mom saw the pictures of the x-ray and felt so worried she was so upset, she couldn’t see her younger son in pain it was very hard for her to see all of this going on.
The lady working came up to my mom and informed us that they had to send down the x-rays to the 2 doctors to get an opinion on the situation, and whether a surgery should be taken place or not to bring the two bones closer to one another.
After waiting for about an hour the same lady approached us and informed us that the doctor would like to speak to us. We quickly rushed into the room and sat down the doctor came in with the x-ray reports in his hand. He set the three x-rays across the board, and explained to us where and how the bone is broken and how harmful this may be, but than he informed us that after consulting with two other doctors they had came up with the conclusion that surgery was not necessary to be performed as it could make things worse in my brothers case. He told us the best way to put a cast on it for the next 3 months, and we will have regular check-ups.
So they wrapped around my brothers arm a green and white cast. He took the x-rays off the board.
And off we were to home!
