One week later...

One week later we went to Vilate's orthopedics appointment. We did not know if she would get the cast off or if she'd get a new, but she was looking forward to it. The cast the emergency room put on was HUGE. She could not wear any of her shirt, the cast was too big to get her arm through. She wore my T-shirts with a slit in the back of the sleeve.

We met with the physicians assistant first and then the doctor. They were not sure if they would put a new cast on. Her arm was still swollen and her elbow was very frangible, but they could see how HUGE the cast was and they decided to put a new/smaller one on. They were a few people helping to hold the arm stable while it was being wrapped. Vilate chose her favorite color, Red. The doctor told us to come back in 2 weeks. He did not say if the cast would come off or not, so I guess we will just see in 2 weeks. Vilate is really excited to have all her friends to sign her new cast.
