I Went to the Hospital to Care for My Son After He Broke His Leg – Then the Nurse Slipped Me a Note, ‘He’s Lying. Check the Camera at 3 a.m.’

“I’m sorry,” he whispered. His eyes were red-rimmed.

“You scared me.”

“For what? You didn’t do it on purpose.”

“Were you doing tricks again?” I asked gently. I wasn’t even mad; I just wanted to know what happened. Howard loves trying to jump the curb, even though I’ve told him a thousand times to wait until he’s older.

“I told you,” Jasper interrupted. “He just lost his balance. No tricks. Just a weird slip on the driveway.”

I just wanted to know what happened.
