I'm not sure what it is about Miles but he has cost us more in medical/dental bills than the other 3 kids combined. Part of it is the big people around him. We had a family dinner where I instituted a little kids jumping time and big kids jumping time to avoid how Miles broke his leg last time in Dec 2017. Which was working great until an uncle wanted to jump and throw kids. Miles got hurt and I brought him in and iced it. He continued to not use the arm and complain the next couple days so we got him a sling until we could see the orthopedic doctor (a word Miles knows well and sometimes says he wants to be when he grows up). I can attest they make good money! He got to wear his sling for picture day but took it off for the picture!
They took an x-ray but couldn't see any break. They decided to cast it anyway based on how he was acting and that we were going our of town for a week for fall break so it would be protected. 
It hard trying to get him to wear the sling, not run or climb on things for 2 weeks and then another month after that. When we came back they x-rayed it again and thought their was a tiny micro fracture just above his elbow on his humorous. We always seem to break things right before breaks with lots of family so he got most of his cousins etc. in UT and ID to sign it!

| Super Miles! Good as new! We hope this is his last break and we can keep the trampoline! |
