Today was Eleanor’s follow up appointment. I took photos of her x-ray, the splint coming off (just the ace bandage actually, the plaster stayed on), and the new cotton and cast casing going on.
Her x-rays looked good. The bones are in the right position.
This is the removal of the bandage.
More removal. You can see the upper arm portion has been taken off. It is U shaped, with the bottom of the U under her elbow.
The new cotton going on.
Pink! Rainbow wasn’t an option. When she asked why, the guy told her it was because the government wouldn’t pay for it, which…okkkaaay.
When he started cutting the bandage she said she was getting scared, but she quickly calmed down and was very brave. We will go back every week for 4-6 weeks until they say we are all done.
