Only Dalen



Only Dalen would be playing with friends, fall off of their bed, break his arm, complain and whine a little and then sleep all night on it. And only Dalen would cry more about having to miss basketball season than the pain or broken bone.

Only Dalen would pass the time (6.5 hours) at the ER by preaching at the doorway, checking the temperature of my toes, knees and belly button. Only Dalen can tell the nurses and doctors they take WAAAAAY too long and get away with it. And only he could rare back at the doctor while they moved his broken arm and yell, "You hurtin' me man!"

Only Dalen would suggest he could still play basketball and dribble one handed. Only Dalen would kick the wall out of anger when he realized that he can't play the drums with both hands because of his cast.

This is his first broken bone. The cast is already driving him nuts and we are using super skinny glowsticks he got for his birthday to stick in the cast to scratch his "itchies".
