After 4 weeks Lauren finally got her cast off today! The docs took another round of x-rays and said all looks good and the bone is healing nicely. She now has a soft cast on for another 4 weeks, but at least we can take it off during the day and she can move her arm around. We were given a few exercises for her to do to help make it strong again.
The happy girl.
These were the screws that were in her arm! Can you believe how big they are?! They took them out like they were removing a nail - just pulled them right on out. Dave was with her and said she didn't cry a tear. Better than I could have done!
That is unbelievable. She is really brave. I'm so glad to see her big smile and a smaller cast.
