BROKEN ARM TAKE 1 & 2


Yes, Troy broke his arm AGAIN!!!!! Last week we were walking and he tripped over his own feet and landed on his wrist. Thus, another cast for a new year. After crying my eyes out for a day I am dealing with it much better now. Troy, on the other hand, is once again a little trooper and adjusting to the cast with ease. He will have to wear it for 4 weeks and we are already down 1 week. Yea!!! Of course, Troy wanted a red cast since Lightning McQueen is red. The dude is obsessed with cars and now even points out sports cars on the freeway and says he wants one of them. He better start saving his money now.

We headed to the pediatric outpatient treatment center (POTC) on Monday for another spinal tap. I can’t believe we made it through our first course of maintenance already. Time is finally started to move instead of crawl by. His hair is coming in so great and most days I have to comb it because it sticks up. For some reason Troy's hair coming back is just a wonderful thing for me. I think he was darling bald, but I am glad he is getting hair. All in all, things are going pretty good and the doctors and nurses are taking great care of him. We are so grateful for modern medicine. Thanks to everyone for your constant concern for Troy.
