12/14/11 The Knee

Ouch! Gabriel apparently tripped over a basketball today at lunch, running full speed. He landed on his knee and wasn't able to bend it or walk on it. Dave picked him up, and pushed him in a wheelchair to his car to take him to the doctor.

It's probably OK, she didn't feel anything broken and didn't think his symptoms merited an x-ray -- but she said if it doesn't get better quickly, to call an orthopedist.

Gabriel's been hopping around all day, but tonight when he was more focused on ice cream, I noticed him walking almost normally. I believe that it hurts him, but I think he'll get over it quickly.

Good thing, because I was JUST about to try to book us for a snow/ski day!
