She's Free! (by Lindsay)

I always wondered how they got a cast off...

Today I got to see how it happens. Ella got her cast off and had new x-rays of her arm, and she's completely healed!

I was definitely more excited than she was... ever since it came off, she's been holding her arm and whining, "More purple!" I guess it can take a little while for her to get used to "not" having it :)

She's still favoring her right arm quite a bit, so it will take time for her to get used to using it again and to rebuild some of the lost strength.

But so far, no sucking her fingers! Fingers crossed that it continues...

I am SO happy that the cast is gone... it will make our lives just a little bit easier :)

Anyway, here are some pictures of the process:
