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.

His leg seems so tiny without that huge cast on him. I hope he heals soon!
