She took off her cast. I'm getting tired of this. The fourth freak'n time. Anyways, it looks like the swelling went down. So we re-wrapped it with one of those things that you rap your leg with when you twist your ankle along with the plastic splint that was in the cast. We where hoping that that would last long enough to get us to thursday. Thursday was the origianl date the doctor gave us for when the cast could be taken off, so we figured we would just wrap it ourselves until then. Well that Didn't work. I came home and the wrap was all shredded. So I decided to take the part that was still on the leg off because there no point in having it on half shredded. Now she has spent the last 15 minutes cleaning the leg. She's extending it, retracting it, putting it up and down so that she can clean ever milimeter of her leg. Shes doing it all with out pain. So is it possible that its already healed? I figure if it was still broken that It would still hurt her, but obviously it isn't hurting her if she is moving it around and eveything. She's not walking on it right not, but I figure that its still swollen or that its because of the infection. But if she's able to extend/retract and all that good stuff, then its gotta be healed. So what do you guys think?

Nope, I didn't even get to talk to him. Both times the nurse just came out into the waiting room and took Haley, then ten minutes later she came back with a new cast.

Yup, that's how I feel, thats why I don't want to take her back if they're just going to put it back on, have to pay 35 bucks, then go back on thursday and pay another 35 dollars for them to take it off.
