The Half Cast

David had another doctor appointment today. I was so excited to learn that he would get his cast taken off and a half cast put in its place. When they took off his cast it was kind of amazing. They used this really scary looking electric saw to cut the cast. I was worried that it might cut David but they assured me that it wouldn't. I took pictures of the procedure but it was on my cell phone and I'm not sure how to get them onto my blog. After they cut it with they saw they took another tool and popped it open. David said that they cracked him open like a nut. Weird but that it was it looked like. Then the great reveal. His leg was out of the cast but he had to be careful not to move it. He started scratching but the nurse told him to stop because it was very thin skin and he could hurt himself. Poor thing his leg has been itching for a while and when he can finally get to the itch he still couldn't scratch.LOL Anyway, after taking off the cast they put on a lighter half cast and this will stay on for a week. If I can figure out how I might post some pictures of the procedure later.
