Hayden Update

[Guest guest]

Hello, just got back from Hayden's third casting. Dr. Pirani is away,

so it was his replacement Milt. He was nice enough if not a bit of a

know-it-all and kind of liked the sound of his own voice, but the

appointment went well and that's all that matters to me. There were

more students (can't seem to get away from it - every midwifery

appointment I had there was a student, too), but they were quiet and

asked questions here and there. I got a little nervous when they

didn't put him in my lap, but I gave Hayden some formula and he was

great through pretty much the whole thing. He only fussed again for

amoment when they were trying to keep his left (bad) foot in position

and he started to fight them. I was all for keeping the right cast on

because the skin on his left leg was just fine, but Milt told me to

take it off because they didn't want it to get to tight from him

growing. So we did. The fact that his skin is okay is a big deal for

me because we had such a hard time though the summer. The left foot

is still quite far behind and I am going to post a couple of photos

once I download them off the camera (is there a camera that will just

" beam " the photos?) so you can all see.
