More Breaking News...




So, the splint came off. But, the xrays were HARD to get. Hard!! She was having painful flashbacks of the initial xrays. The xray technician was very sweet and finally won Emily over. Too bad that was not the only hurdle we had. The doctor wanted her to stretch out that arm to test her range of motion. Only, too bad for him, because she was very determined by then that her arm was just fine frozen against her side. Don't get me wrong, she wasn't brattty, just very scared. She didn't really need the sling, but the nice doctor put it back on her to make her feel more comfortable. We have to go back in 4 weeks and then again in 6 months. And since then she has gradually gotten distracted enough to move it. And just look at that dirty hand, would ya?
