On the Mend - Part 2

Livvi went back to the hospital on Wednesday for a follow up to see how her arm was healing. The old cast was removed and Liv headed to x-ray.



The x-rays indicated it is healing nicely. While the view from the top doesn't look like it, this is apparently well within the range of acceptability (and hasn't moved since being set 3 weeks ago). The view they are most concerned with is the side view and that is perfect!




With the good news, Liv was able to get a new, waterproof cast! More good news is it doesn't go over the elbow. Even more good news is, after about a week, she can start many of her activities again. This means she can resume her Tae Kwon Do, though she obviously can't be sparring (or any other activity that involves her hitting that hand against anything). We are certainly encouraged by her progress thus far! She didn't waste any time and jumped in our small pool shortly after she got home!





In other news, Joie's eye is feeling much better!
