PEARL RIVER, La. (Monday, Aug. 24, 2009, 6 a.m.) – Wednesday is the big day – Matthew has his full leg cast removed.
As you may remember, I took a day off from work two weeks ago to take Matthew to the Children's Hospital in New Orleans to have his first cast removed. After our doctor examined Matthew, he decided to try a second cast to further help my son's club foot.
I wasn't particularly excited about it. And I know Matthew wasn't, either. But he has been an incredibly good sport. And now, hopefully, he will be able to trade in the cast for a brace to wear at night. We'll see. And I'll post a follow up on Wednesday night.
This time, Pam is taking Matthew. I might try to meet them at the doctor, but I may not be able to.
