Default Bella's leg is broke

My poor little girl looks so uncomfortable and sad. My son did something to her today, we aren't really sure what but she was in her ex pen and he wasn't. She cryed and was very obviously hurt when we seen her at that point holding her right front paw up in the air. I brought her into the livingroom on the carpet and she wouldn't put any weight on it. When she did try once she fell right on the floor. We went to the vet and it is broken, a clean fracture thankfully but still awful for her to have to deal with. I feel so guilty and wish that I had somehow prevented this from happening. I really wonder at this point whether i'm a responsible enough person to own such a fragile little gal. The vet was able to splint it and is hopeful that it will heal up nicely as long as we keep her from jumping and getting to rambunctious. We go back in 2 weeks and she will have to wear a splint for 6 to 8 weeks. If this doesn't heal properly she will need surgery. OMG.. I'm just in tears for my poor baby. She can't even get around with this splint on, she looks so horribly sad.
