Its a splint, but they put me in the splint before they realized it was a fracture. I left the ER being told it was a contusion, then got a call the next morning and they told me they looked at the xrays again and it was a fracture.

Not to worry I will bring plaster and recast him. Of course he will wake up in a full body cast

I just came back from a specialist wgo put me in a 3/4 arm cast. I told him about the plans to ride down to the rally, and he gave me 2 apts, one next thursday, and one on the day we are supposed to leave. with any luck i will have the cast off on may 6. if it dont come off i may end up driving down

And here is a better picture of the break
