Guest guest Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 I only have a minute because can't do anything himself. The post-op today was VERY HARD for us. The staff was great and we were able to get some great correction. I will post pictures later. I need your help regarding your experiences with these problems: The cast below his tummmy around his hips IS very very tight (I can hardly get my finger in there) and low. He cannot sit at all. We couldn't get him in our car seat because it hurt to bend him, or it would cut off his circulation. He cannot lower his arm because the cast is so high under the arm....so he just holds it up all the time. He can't crawl because he can't get him arm over the cast to the floor (because the cast is so high under the arm). He can stand briefly but it's too heavy for him and his knees buckle. So, all is left is for him to lay down and watch TV or for me to hold him. He has one strap over one arm, but that seems to be doing okay. Help!
