Bye-Bye Cast!!

Liam broke his arm February 13 and initially they told me he' likely be in a cast for 4-6 weeks. I'm happy to report that just 3 weeks later and he is completely out of the cast!!

He broke the humerus just above the elbow which is a called Supracondylar fracture. These types of fractures are somewhat problematic as they heal. At this point he still has to keep his arm in a sling for the next week or so as the bone continues to heal. After our next appointment it will be determined whether or not he will need a few sessions of physical therapy to help him learn how to fully extend the arm again. He is still really sore so he won't be doing flips anytime soon but he sure is glad to be out of the cast.
