Sadie fell off her skateboard yesterday on the way to her friend’s house and was taken by ambulance to University Hospital.  She had a severe laceration on her left posterior femoral region that was bleeding profusely.  The orthopedic surgeon also diagnosed Sadie with a fracture of her left proximal femur (the large bone in the upper leg) and right distal humerus (the large bone in the brachium).  After cleaning and debriding Sadie’s laceration, her nurse used staples to close the wound.
