After only a month & 2 days, Kaelah got to go back to the orthopedic to get her splint off. She had become quite active with her left arm the week before & you could only tell it was there by the sight of it.
Getting the splint off was a bit traumatizing, so they let her wear it cut open to get more x-rays. Everything looks fantastic & she'll be seen again on Monday for (hopefully) her last visit.
You can tell Daddy tries to take the emotional burden on him as well. He's such a good daddy.
It didn't take long for Kaelah to adjust to her arm's freedom. Later that day she, Danny, Mommy, & Grandma went to run around while Meigo played fetch. The weather was great for the middle of March.
We're so grateful Kaelah did not need surgery & handled everything a lot better than I would have expected for someone 2.5 years old. The only residual is that if you ask her about her arms, she'll point to her left arm & say, "this is my broken arm" & then point to her right arm & say, "this is my left arm." I think she heard 'broken' & 'left arm' too much that month.
