Jenna had a high pain thresh hold for many years and didn’t seem whimpy at all. But now she seems to be the opposite – making mountains out of molehills (so to speak)
She took a spill quite recently and landed
on her hand. In the process she may have
sprained her wrist. She wore an ace
bandage to school and says she wants a cast – but I don’t believe that her
wrist is broken. But she says she is too
weak and has a tough time with it. One
specific example that she used was in getting dressed.
I reminded her about Katy Plumis who you can read about here and here. Jenna asked me to remind me about how
Katy lost her arm. I told her that Katy
had been thrown out of a car because she wasn’t wearing a seatbelt. Katy’s cousin was killed in that same
accident.
Jenna then says to me that she’d rather
lose her arm than her life. But then she
said something profound that pleased me because of her mature thoughtfulness. She said she would die if it would prevent
Anna (her cousin) from dying.
