Post-Op Appt.

Exactly 2 weeks after surgery (Mon. April 28) Mary had her post-op appt. with Dr. Scott. Luckily, it was one of those appointments where everything we were expecting and hoping for happened. 

She had x-rays taken and Dr. Scott was very pleased with the progress. As a result, they cut her cast down below her knee. This allows her more mobility and independence so she returned to school on Tuesday.

It doesn't seem that she lost too much range of motion in her knee but she starts Physical Therapy again on Friday.
