The Hospital Stay

Now they've admitted daddy in the hospital for more tests.  For months his arm had been hurting.  We kept telling him, "daddy you need to get that checked."  Two weeks before he went to the hospital they proceeded to tell him it was bursitis and gave him a cortisone shot to help with the pain.  I'm not sure if they x-rayed.  He said they did but it was in the hospital that we found out that he had a tumor that had grown so large around his ball joint/shoulder area on the right side that it literally broke the upper-arm bone in half.  A few days before the bleeding he was holding his arm with his left hand.  It hurt so bad but he took their word that it was bursitis and would clear up soon.  There was no reason for us to think otherwise.
