We took Krystal to the Orthopedic Physician this morning. After looking at her x-rays and checking out her arm, he told us that her breaks are not as serious as originally thought. So - hooray!!! He just put her in a soft cast (a hardened carrier that her arm rests in - and then wrapped with a velcro-ed ace bandage) at a 90 degree angle. It's so nice, because we can take it off to bathe her as long as we keep an eye on her arm so she doesn't use it - and then put it right back on. He thinks she'll be all healed in 3 weeks. So, other than being a little more grumpy then usual today - Krystal is feeling fine. Much less stress. She spent an hour tonight telling us, "Dad ... I love you two many! Mom ... I love you two many!" Over and 0ver - (you don't think she means "I love you TOO many", do you?) haha. Man, we love her!

YAY Krys, so happy it's not as bad as you thought.
Those soft casts are SO much better. I was relieved when AJ broke his leg that he could keep it in a soft cast.
Heres to an even speedier recovery.
