5th metatarsal tuberosity fracture

Max broke his foot during a water gun fight with Father Todd and several youth at church Sunday night. It's an annual summertime bonfire and water gun fight. He was standing on the curb and lost his balance and fell off the curb kind of twisting his ankle and landing on the outside of his foot.
I took him to the ER yesterday and confirmed the fracture with an x-Ray.
We have an Ortho consult next week. I think they'll be able to tell us whether or not he can play polo for school this fall.
But starting high school with crutches- that's tough. Of course a cute girl may feel sorry for him and help him out- which isn't so tough. Could go either way.
