A FACE ONLY A MOTHER COULD LOVE!

Dan Zane and Friends



About 2 weeks ago we went to the Dan Zane concert with some friends. We had a great time but the heat forced us out. It was very humid and there was no AC at the Concord High School. Since Carter still had his cast on - he was miserable! We spent about an hour at the concert then went with our friends to Friendlys for ice cream. It was such a great day out even though we were hot and sticky!!!

Better Late than Never!!


This post is about one week late! Carter got his cast off early due to some cast ISSUES! You can use your imagination if you have ever dealt with a spica cast! I will spare you the details. He is only wearing an ACE bandage. The past week he has been doing well and now is letting us take the ACE off for a couple hours a day. Soon he will go back to Next Step to start fitting for a new prosthesis. He is not walking on his little leg because it is VERY sensative. We are in the process of trying to de-sensatise his leg, but it is not that easy! Maggie brought a bean bucket big enough for both boys to fit in and that seems to help. We also are giving him tubbys with no ACE on. Hopefully soon we can get him in the pool, it will be the perfect therapy! So here is a picture of Carter right after he got his cast off.
