Brayden's Foot.
We finally got into the fracture clinic last Wednesday and were seen by the fracture specialist. They were happy to let me know that Brayden "buckle" broke his metatarsus and has chips. It means really that the bone is broken in half and not all the way through and then is compressed together. So, basically the largest bone in the middle of his foot that goes to his big toe . He has to keep the same cast on for three weeks. They will not be putting another cast on. So, they have wrapped it with a green non stretchy tape. Hopefully it will stay tight and hold up for the next three weeks. They say the pain is normal and DEFINITELY no walking or pressure on the cast at all. Because this will still put pressure in the foot and just keep breaking the buckle that is healing. Thank you everyone for your prayers.
