A few hours later, while Izzy was cooking dinner, she heard Logan scream so she immediately stopped what she was doing and ran to him.
"Logan! Baby, what happened?" She asked worriedly. Logan was on the floor by his bedroom window cradling his right arm.
"Me and Blake were jumping on the bed because we're excited to finally have a family and I jumped too close to the edge and fell. My arm really hurts." Logan told her. Izzy gently grabbed his arm and told him to tell her when it hurt, then lightly pushed on it in various spots, all of which Logan said hurt but when she just barely grazed his wrist Logan jerked away as if he had been stung and started crying.
"Logan?" Izzy asked. "Do you want to go to the hospital?" Logan nodded through the tears. Izzy went to get him something to wear and helped him and Blake get dressed then went to get the twins ready. Once everyone was ready she put the twins in their car seats and took them out to the van, then she helped Blake and Logan into their booster seats.
"Mommy?" Blake asked. "Where are we going?"
"Logan got hurt. We're going to the hospital to make sure he didn't break his bones." Izzy told him. She drove to the hospital in silence. When they got there she helped the boys out of their booster seats then grabbed the twins car seats and walked into the emergency department of the hospital.
"Hi, can I help you?" The receptionist asked.
"Yes, my foster son got hurt while playing with another of my foster children." Izzy told her. The receptionist looked at her then nodded.
"Ok fill out this paperwork and bring it back to me." The receptionist said handing Izzy a clipboard. Izzy went over to the waiting area and sat down to fill out the paperwork then she took it to the receptionist. A few minutes later, a man walks in with a little boy and a little girl. The little girl was covered in red spots and looked like she was struggling to breathe. The man quickly talked to the receptionist and came to sit in the waiting area.
