Darek went back to the Orthopedic Dr. today and they took another x-ray of the leg. Great news - the pin is right where he put it two weeks ago. The Dr. was very pleased and told him that he still needed to stay off of it for another 4 weeks. At that time they will x-ray it again and probably give him an okay to put pressure on it. He will still be using one crutch for a couple weeks after that.
Even better news! He can go back to school!!! Ye Ha! He will have to start back slowly, but I'll take anything right now.
The bad news for Darek is that no ATV or motorcycle for another couple of months at least. Poor kid. Now he will have to look forward to snowmobiling rather than motorcycle riding.
We are so glad that it is healing so well. Dr. Klatt thinks that he will need no physical therapy. He says that kids his age usually bounce back rather well. Amazing what the human body can do when you are young.
