One Day

By Haley

 

One day my family was getting ready

To go on a walk.  I was

Going to get on my rope swing

When my parents heard a scream.

They ran back.  I tried to tell

But it hurt too bad and I

Was crying so I pointed to

My hand.  My parents understood

What I said.  My dad ran to get

A board and instead of going

For a walk, we went to the emergency

Room.  I said, “it hurts so bad.”  We were

In the emergency room for a couple

Of hours.  The one wrist I broke

Was my right arm.  I had a

Sling for two months, and a hard

Cast (people could sign) that was

That I had for four and five months.

I still have my sling.  The year was

2009.  I wish it did not happen.

My dad was the first person

To sign my cast.  He wrote

I love love love you.
