Update: Week 2

Mary has had a great week. She hasn't needed any meds since Monday (1 week after 8 plate and foot surgery). She still isn't completely mobile on her own yet. She scooches (vs. walking) up and down the stairs and needs help lifting her leg when she sits down. She has started using her crutches some this week. 

Good news is her doctor had to change her appt up a day. So on Monday (2 weeks after surgery) she should have her cast cut down to below her knee. She will have her knee back and the cast won't be so heavy. Mary will get some practice moving around with the shorter version and she will return back to school on Tuesday.

Mary really likes getting outside and going on walks. She uses her wheelchair for that.

So far so good.
