Narrative

As EE was putting some hyd. hoses into a scoop bucket a couple of 9' timbers that were lying in the bucket became dislodged and fell onto EE's right hand. X-rays at the ER were negative for a fracture. EE continued to have swelling so returned to the doctor on 5/17/2016 where X-rays revealed a small fracture and the doctor recommended physical therapy
