On the Way to Recovery



Well, here we are 12 days post surgery. He has a little hardware in there! We went for a checkup today and he is doing much better and somewhat back to the old Ethan. He will have to have all this out next Jan/Feb but he's hoping to be able to play soccer or run track in April. He went to football practice the other night and the coaches asked him to be the student manager so hopefully that will help him feel a little better.






Waiting for the cast! IF YOU HAVE A WEAK STOMACH - DON'T GO TO THE NEXT PICTURE!!!










This was his leg last Friday. The black bubbles are blisters and they had to pop them. He has another incision and staples on the other side of his leg as well.

Ugh. Gross. :)
I wonder if there is anyone who would read the words "If you have a weak stomach, don't go to the next picture" and actually not look at it ;) Wow. I hope it heals quickly.
