Still Broken
We took Kaylen's cast off yesterday, and she still wasn't walking well on it. So, we got in at the orthopedist's office. He confirmed that he also thought her leg was broken. He couldn't prove it with the X-Rays, but he said all the symptoms were there. He said we could cast it if we wanted to, but it would go clear up to her hip since she's so small. That would make walking really difficult and baths nearly impossible. So, he recommended that we do nothing. (We're really good at that!) He said there's little chance that she will break it any worse, and that since the fracture is so small it will heal well on its own. It should take 3 or 4 weeks. So, until then, Children's Tylenol and Ibuprofen are our best friends!
