He saw a dr. today and the dr. said, "Your elbow is indeed broken. But! You don't have to wear a cast! Just a sling! And go see an orthopedic person! And do physical therapy!"
The dr. was concerned that if D's elbow was casted he would lose range of motion, which would be bad news bears. So he is uncasted, but slung, and will be seeing an orthopedic person on Wednesday to start figuring out physical therapy.
I was very happy when he came home from the dr. and was able to hug me with both arms. What a small luxury that I've missed so much! I'm sure D is happy about things like being able to use his left hand again, dress himself, etc.
Life around here is never boring!!

I think the most important issue here, people, is how the bum elbow will affect his ability to continue playing the Wii??? C'mon!!
