Casts

We went back into casts May 5 and Monkeyman has adjusted beautifully! Other than some itchy times nothing slows my boy down. He runs, jumps, climbs, rides his run bike and everything he did before :) his cast was pretty broken up on the toes. We get people trying to tell him he shouldn't be doing stuff with his cast - playing soccer or climbing at the park because they assume he should be taking it easy because they assume it is broken and not that it is corrective. 
We got a good correction with the first cast and she expects to get a full correction :) 
He went into his second cast today and again did amazing! Such a proud momma of my boy. He will be going for surgery when our doctor is able to do it- that will require a night stay in the hospital which will be an adventure. I found some socks at Walmart that are called Grow socks that fit over his cast perfectly which allows us to go to playgrounds with rocks and not worry about them getting in his cast and causing problems. The only thing is that he has worn through many :) we went with a bigger cast shoe this time so I think that will prevent his cast from getting banged up and his socks wearing out :) 

Here are a few pics of my happy Monkeyman
