Needless to say, we have one VERY happy girl. She graduated to a brace that she'll wear for the next 4 weeks. On an up note, she can take it off to bathe, sleep, and to do her PT stretches. (I'm also pretty excited that it can be washed ... unlike the casts!)
She received the green light to ease back in to participating in the activities she'd been banned from since breaking her arm. She can participate in Irish dance again (so long as she isn't risking tripping and falling) starting next week, and she can return to taking part in PE class at school in 2 more weeks (again, so long as it is safe/comfortable for her arm).
The orthopedics team members at Children's Hospital were incredible and we are grateful for their level of care throughout this entire process. That said, I hope they aren't offended when I say, "I hope we never have a reason to see you again!" 😄
Way to heal, Annika!! Just no more monkey bars, please!
