Micheal Post op 2

Michael had his second post op doctor visit yesterday. The doctor did not take any new x rays to see how the bone graphs are coming along, but he did go ahead and remove the heavy plaster cast along with all the blood soaked bandages and replace them with clean dressings a light weight fiberglass cast. Michael did pretty well with the whole thing until he looked down and seen all of the pins sticking out of his foot. He soon recovered and was disappointed that dad had left his camera phone in the car. The doctor said that he will see him back in three weeks and they will probably do more X rays then, however it looks as though he will spend the full eight weeks in the cast and off the foot. Tough break since the local Amusement parks open a week from Saturday and he will have to wait until the cast comes off to ride anything.
