Thread: Bad Afternoon last Friday

Tweet

Colt got his last cast off last Thursday March 29th. The X rays showed the bones healed nicely so the doctors decided he no longer needed a cast. hey said see you in 6 weeks. Ok, cool, thanks. We've been trying like crazy to get him to walk. Her is so freaked out and traumatized from seeing his ankle dangling/flopping, he is afraid to put weight on it. we've tried everything. I am still trying to understand why they don't offer kids physical therapy for situations like this.

We did get a walker from my mom and we have gotten Colt to attempt to stand up and put weight on it. He is "walking" with the walker. He will not put weight on it though. I took him outside and his little ass will peddle the wheels right off a pedal tractor. You can get him to push your hand with his leg when you're playing around. But in no way does he want to put weight on that leg. Hopefully we can get him coxed into walking the next couple of days.
