The Invalid

Poor Mr. Abraham took a little tumble of off a rock. A BIG rock. In fact it was the Big Rock.

There are some very large rock formations in the woods behind our house. For those who have never been in those woods, it is basically a large hill covered with trees and at the foot of the hill there is a lovely oil filled creak. So these rock formations jut out creating little cliffs. We've named these rocks and the largest of them all was dubbed Big Rock. Well it just so happened Abe was playing in the woods a couple weeks ago and fell of of the infamous Big Rock which has a 7 foot drop before you land on the jagged rocks below. But this didn't seem to phase Abe. It didn't occur to him to tell his parents until the next day when the pain and swelling had greatly increased. Finally, in the evening of the second day he asked his dad to take him to the ER because he thought his arm might be broken. Dad observed his arm and was shocked at its state. Mom thought perhaps that if Abe only said it might be broken that maybe they could wait until the next day. Dad summed up the sitution by saying "If Abe thinks it's broken, then it is." So they went to the ER and found out that he did indeed have a Buckle Fracture.

And this conludes another tale portraying Abraham's iron strength and unusual ability to endure things that are painful.... at least painful to normal people.
