We just all really have to remember that this goes one day at a time. Even if he wears his band for longer than you have anticipated, this short time in comparison to his whole life is so small! He won't remember, and years from now it will all seem like no big deal to you. This short time he will spend in his band is benefiting his whole life....you have done such a good job as a mom to do this for him. Just remember that. & Vivian (casted today!)
