I was afraid that you and everyone else would think it awfully crooked if I told you it'd been broken to begin with. Don't tell her, but I always let her believe every little injury is more serious than it is. Do you ever do that? She's so smart; I'd hate her to leave us next year. Besides, we need a healer in our friend group with all the trouble we get into. The more practice she gets, the better.
