Goodbye CAST!


Jackson's cast was on for 4 weeks. I'm not sure who was happier it was coming off! He can finally get a shower and go swimming. And we have been swimming this past week. Since Wednesday we have been in the pool for at least 10 hours. 

One last picture before walking into the doctor's office. 

Nurse Billy was awesome! He cut the cast on the bottom first.

Then he cut it on the top. J was a little frighten by the saw but the nurse showed him it would not cut him. 

It's just about off! He is getting excited. 

The nurse used some clippers to snap the cast apart. 

And it's off!!

J held his arm like this for the longest time. 

We went to an exam room and J was all smiles and he was so giddy. And his arm had a awful odor. Not just an unpleasant one. It down right stunk. I used the hand sanitizer on it and it only made it worse. I just a wipe on it. Nothing. When we got home I put him in the tub and scrubbed the odor off! 

He was all smiles headed home.
This was the shortest visit to a doctor we have ever had! And it included getting the cast off, x-rays and seeing the doctor.
After we got his arm cleaned we headed to the pool.
