Our latest visit to the orthopedic surgeon went as well as can be expected. We really love our physicians assistant, Melissa. She has just been so wonderful to Jax. Jax had numerous options once his temporary cast came off. After seeing and feeling the pins that were exposed from his hand, Jax opted for the hard cast to cover the pins. I had to agree. He could have left them completely exposed or put a removable splint on it, but between all of us, I think we were both pretty freaked out at seeing those darn pins. The bones are healing remarkably fast and he is doing wonderful!!! I couldn't be happier with this patient!!!
It was a very painful visit. His doctor was pretty rough with his fingers but I know he needs to get them moving. His homework assignment, play the XBOX 360 as much as necessary to get the movement back into his fingers. He was pretty much over the moon excited about that!!! Justice isn't complaining about that either!! He has his buddy back so they sit together, for hours, "STUDYING!!!"
