Charlie got his cast off last Wednesday. Patrick took him. He said that Charlie just sat next to him and held his hand while they sawed off the cast. He was a little scared at first, but then was more intrigued as to what they were doing. He didn't even cry! (Through that part, at least). Then came the x-rays. Enter tears here. For some reason, Charlie REALLY hates getting x-rays. But, luckily, there shouldn't be anymore for a while. (Fingers crossed.) X-rays showed that Charlie's leg is healing nicely and they don't even want us to come back for a follow-up! Yippee! Charlie is still limping a little as if he still has the cast on, but that should pass quickly. The night he got it off, we had a bath party... he even ate dinner in the bath!! The leg was a little funky after 4 weeks of sponge baths!
yay Charlie! This is so funny - Ells has almost never stood up in the tub. Aahh, girls. Glad he doesn't have a peg leg anymore!
