C is for Cast

Which is blue… like a Power Ranger, of course.

We met with the ortho md yesterday. Thankfully b/c of Shad’s relationship with the practice we got in as soon as we could get over there. A spiral fracture of the tibia, it should be fine they say. His cast goes up almost to his groin, it’s non-weightbearing and he has a pediatric walker to get around.

His school is hesitant to tell me whether he can be there. Isn’t there an ADA law on this sort of thing? If he’s relatively mobile (aside from the stairs and the toilet) do they not need to accommodate him? I guess I’ll learn quickly…

Anyway, more importantly, he’s in some pain still, and he really just wants Dad – who is at work. Kate is beside herself because the attention has been diverted slightly.
