DescriptionA woman inspects a child's wrist in its bandaged wrist brace at a public school in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The child is speaking and looking down at their wrist. A second woman is seated behind the child, watching the interaction. The woman examining the child's injured wrist is wearing a ruffled blouse and a patterned skirt. Her dark hair is piled on her head and she is holding the child's hand in her palm as she listens to the child. The child is wearing a t-shirt with a heart design on the front. The second woman is wearing a turtleneck shirt with a patterned button-down shirt over it.
