Russ fell while ice-skating on Christmas Day when Greg and Shantelle and family were here injuring his left wrist. It swelled and was quite painful for several days, but then seemed to improve somewhat. The wrist continued to nag at him, however, and after an incident in the kitchen last week when he tripped over the dog and caught himself on the edge of the counter with the same wrist and almost doubled over in pain I encouraged him (strongly) to see the doctor. Since he also had discomfort in the right wrist from a fall on the driveway earlier in December while scraping the girls' car windows before school, the Dr. decided to x-ray both of them. Diagnosis? Bilateral triquetral fractures--non-healing. He has been referred to a hand specialist, but while he waits he keeps them both immobilized.😂
