scary-looking fractured arm....

Had to send one of my NCC boys to KK hospital yesterday because he fractured his arm while playing soccer during training. Gosh, that's the first time i saw a fractured arm, and boy does it look scary. It's like, his forearm was....mmm....bent......and obviously bent...kinda weirdly-shaped and all. Must have been sooo painful. : Hopefully he's better today.

Funny but the boys somehow related to me in terms of being in my form class or my CCA seem to ALWAYS get injured. I remember last year, i had to send one of my NCC boys to KK too, that was coz he fractured his toe, and the bone was apparently protruding out from in between his toes. *gross* Thankfully i didn't see it, all i did was hear about the incident, and jump into the ambulance to KK.

The Sec 1 BURST camp last year was also full of injuries from my form class too...one boy fell while running and got trampled on and fractured his arm, and another boy fell into the drain because some other itchy-handed person lifted up the drain cover behind him.

Sec 2 BURST camp this year, MOST of the injuries that happened were from my class also. I think out of 5 injuries, 3 of them were my kids. One couldn't get used to the environment there (Jalan Bahtera campsite), and had to be sent home, one had a dislocated arm and i had to deport him to NUH, another one had a scission on his shin because he fell while playing dog-&-bone & smashed against something, and the wound just didn't seem to clot up, so had to bring him to the docs the next morning. *yikes* So many of my boys had injuries during this year's Sec 2 BURST camp...*faint*

Oh wells....praying that there won't be anymore injuries....at least for the rest of this year........please?
