News from the Specialist Appointment

Well, we went to the specialist office today and it went well enough. Kimberly was a little scared when the PA came in and she started to cry.

The PA said it would heal on it's own - no surgery. They do not do surgery on anyone under the age of 6 or over the age of 60. He switched her harness for a sling to keep her arm immobile - although we are using both for bedtime tonight to help.

At this point, baths are okay but swimming is out - not even a wading pool allowed because she would not be able to balance. It is early enough in the summer that we should be able to get some swimming in before the weather turns cold.

We go back in 2 weeks for more X-Rays and to see how things are healing. I will post as things come up.
