Well here we are again!I took Cole to the arm doctor again earlier this week to get new x-rays and see how his arm has progressed. Well, it hasn't at all. In fact, the bone moved, IN THE WRONG DIRECTION! So, we had to have him go under so the doctor could move the bone back in place and re-cast his arm. We're not sure why the bone moved or what may have caused it. I guess stuff like that just happens sometimes and you gotta do what you gotta do.
Here we are just before his procedure. He was actually quiet excited about the whole thing. He got to decorate the mask that they used to put him under and ride around in a wagon and a push-car. What more could a boy want?! He especially loved the outfits. He loves to wear the face-mask I had and play doctor. What a trooper!
I got to go in the room with him until he was asleep. Let me tell you, that was kinda weird! His eyes actually rolled into the back of his head! But the doctors and nurses were really great and told me what would happen before it did, so I wasn't freaking out!
All went well and now he is back at home causing mischief. Way to not skip a beat, son!

Aren't you grateful for modern medicine, so he doesn't have to grow up with a deformed bone! Tough (and cute) kid!
Holy Cow! He's amazing. He is such a cutie. And may I add how cute you look as well in those scrubs!
I broke my arm in 3rd grade and the specialist (I broke it in the growth plates) that had to set it was at an ASU football game. He waited for it to be over, then was stuck in traffic...anyway, he had to rebreak my arm when he arrived because it had started to heal. Trust me, you are glad Cole was out for it! I am glad it is fixed and that he is finally healing!
