So...after seeing the Ortho Doctor at Children's Hospital today, Ty is on a good road to recovery. There are 3 bones in each of your fingers, minus your thumb- only 2. He broke the middle bone in his pinky near the knuckle but not so severe that he would need a cast, YAY!!!! We are getting by with a removable brace for the next three weeks and then he should be perfectly good and healed. This was a much better decision than putting on a cast, now he can still go swimming versus not being able to get a cast wet. We were really excited about this :o) Brace during the day and while outside playing and at night we just have to "buddy tape" his pinky and ring finger together while sleeping. Not a bad gig! Here is look at his brace while he was telling my Mom all the details on the phone :o)
Keep your fingers crossed that this is it, I still have seven weeks left of Summer Break :o)
Hugs!
How in the world do you break the middle bone and not the other two? Awesome though, right! Great news :)
