No More Casts

We got to go back to Childrens Hospital of Los Angeles on Monday for little Jacob to get his last cast taken off. He asked the guy if he could keep the spiderman cast. The guy (who happened to be the same guy that put the cast on and hand drew the spiderman on it) said no problem and he would fix it up all nice so that it would look good when we took it home. So he took off the cast and then we went to get x-rays and then to see the actual doctor. When we were in waiting for the doctor, the cast guy brought Jacob his cast to take home. He had put new lining in it so it didn't smell and put the cast back together. I thought that was really nice of him to do.

Here is Jacob waiting for the doctor to come in and holding his new cast. He was pretty excited about that.
After seeing the doctor we went and they gave us his new foot brace. His foot isn't completely straight yet, but with the screw in place now it will help for the foot to grow into itself and grow straight over the next few years. He is already doing great walking all by himself. We are waiting for the physical therapy referral to be approved so we can start that process next.
We even went yesterday and got new shoes that fit over the foot brace.

He just is so excited that he can walk by himself again he can't stand it. He is all ready to play sports he says . Soon he will be running and jumping and this entire process will just seem like nothing.
