A kid in sports means?

So, we have this great 4 day weekend now. Tuesday is Brazilian Labor Day, and we have rented a house near the beach in Buzios to spend the long weekend. HOWEVER, Sierra ended soccer practice with a bag of ice yesterday and drying tears, using it on both her nose and her right thumb. Seems the ball made contact with both areas of her body during the practice. Isn't this a game that you aren't allowed to use your hands in? Anyway, throughout the night, her nose healed without worry, yet her right thumb continued to grow in size. The creases on the knuckles were even beginning to crack...by bedtime her thumb was 4xs it's normal size.
I wrapped her hand before bed to stabilize any movement and this morning it actually looked a little better--a little. When we got to school, I took her to the school nurse, who added a popsicle stick to the wrapping I had applied this morning and proceeded to tell me that Sierra really needed an xray.

We just returned from Cotrauma...with a fractured thumb, cast to elbow. What will a girl do for the weekend at the beach with a cast on her arm? Well, we know that there is a mini-golf course in Buzios, so we are thinking this will be a good activity for one afternoon. We will all need to play with only our left hand to make it fair though. Also, Sierra loves to shop. I'm sure she'll be pacified.
While the technician was putting on the cast, Sierra informed him that this is her first cast. She's 8, almost 9, and of course very excited about the novelty (right now). The technician simply replied, "Sua premiera e seu otimo." Your first and your last. Now she wants me to decorate it for her with pink flowers and the team logo for Flamengo, the local soccer team she supports. What ever happened to just letting your friends sign their names?
