Update on Macy's arm

Doctor called this morning, and the break was worse than they thought, according to the radiologist report. So we have an appointment Friday morning with an orthopedic doctor at Children's Mercy to see how it needs to be set. Solved the issue of the waterproof cast, b/c apparently Children's only uses waterproof casts.

We went by the hospital to get the x-rays to take to Children's with us, and it's interesting how the angle makes a difference. In one x-ray, the break doesn't look bad. In another, you can see the definate break and the jagged lines. I'm guessing at first they only looked at the first one, talked with us, then later looked at the second.
