Bruised Menicus

 September 29, 2016
Kaden had been complaining that his knee hurt and asked if I could take him to the doctor to check it out.  Apparently, the week before he was playing with his friends after Scouts and he came down on his knee wrong after hopping a fence.  He said everyday it was hurting more until he felt like he could barely put weight on it.  When I called the doctor, they didn't have any appointments, so I took him to urgent care.  He thought the exam room was creepy and I just thought it was cold.  It was like an icebox in there. 
 Anyway, according to the doctor, he bruised his meniscus, which is a spongy tissue below the knee.  So that's why it was causing him pain to put pressure on it.  They gave him a knee immobilizer to wear for a week.  
 He wasn't super thrilled with his new leg accessory.
I took him to Taco Bell after his appointment, before taking him to school.  It's funny how excited teenage boys get about food.  He really enjoyed his fiery taco with Diablo sauce.  
Here's a funny video of Kaden.
