Cast Off

We headed for the orthopedist early this morning.

Brayden started the day with pants and a cast.  The pants were gone because of a diaper blow-out, during rush hour traffic on the beltway (momma did not pull over for that one so there was leakage).

The cast came off because the x-rays looked good.  Showed lots of bone growth. 

His leg looks so little.  The cast was a bit dirty inside (perhaps collateral damage from diapers!?).

Brayden handled it all pretty well.  His leg is stiff, there is a big bump where the break was and a tiny bit of skin breakdown.  There will be physical therapy and putting him back in the stander.  But all in all, he is happy (so far) and so is mommy!  And Luke was a great helper, being very patient and holding Brayden's hand because he "had done it before"...is what he told me since he had his cast off last week.
