Yesterday Aiden was able to get his cast off. He had been asking for weeks when he would get it off. Several people had warned me that he might get scared from the loud noise the saw makes or just freak out in general, not Aiden. My fearless child had no problems. The only thing he didn't like was she made him lay down.
After she took it off he had to get it X-Rayed to make sure everything looked good and this is how he held his arm as he was walking down the hall.
The Dr. said it was healing, but hadn't healed all the way so he has to wear a brace for the next month and then she'll recheck it. Here's to hoping he doesn't re-break it.
Of course the first thing we did was go to the pool. After being in a cast for 6 weeks the pool helped to eliminate the awful smell that his arm had.
Hopefully this will be the last broken bone, but I have a feeling this is just the beginning.
