Yesterday My 2 year old little daughter fell off a sofa and was diagnosed with type 2 milch fracture... The ER doctor immediately just had her entire arm on cast. Tomorrow we are going to see specialized doctor. I just can't imagine that little girl getting such surgery I can't believe God put that tiny creature to go through so much suffering, I wish it was me instead 😢
