My New Cast!

After Nelson took Emily to the ER this week, they referred us to an orthopedic doctor to have him examine her arm and check on it's progress. Well, Emily kept taking off her splint this week (we would get her up from her naps and she would have it off and say "off" -- as if it had just miraculously fallen off)! So, they casted it yesterday. They put it on above her elbow so that she couldn't slip out of this too. She was not so cooperative and screamed through the whole procedure. Needless to say, I was in tears! Good thing Nelson was there -- he was a rock! :)

The cast will stay on for 3 weeks and then they should be able to take it off and the wrist will be healed . . . just in time for the Lewis Family Reunion this summer!

Emily is doing fine and this doesn't seem to have limited her ability to do anything. So, all is well! :)
