my daughters leg

[lesliemarie]

Here is an update, since the surgery the bone is very fragile and breaks easy, so she slipped down the stairs and broke the leg, so now we have a set back, I guess one way to look at it is taking one step forward and a HUGE step backwards, I am waiting for a call from her doctor to see if they want to cast it or not, she has to wear her boot and no weight on the leg what so ever till we find out what we are going to do, it is discouraging in a way. but like the sweet girl she is she has a smile on her face and a quick giggle at things, I love that about her, no matter how much she is going through she has the brightest attitude,

You poor guys. I'm glad she is able to cope with her set back cheerfully. Prayers and hugs to both of you.

Leslie, I'm so sorry. I'm a little choked up by your DD's bravery and I will remember both of you in my prayers.

Sorry to hear about the setbacks. You are both in our prayers. It takes a special person to keep a good attitude when things don't go the way we think they should.

So sorry about the setback. Please {{{{{{{DD}}}}}}, what a trooper.

Oh, Leslie, I am so sorry. I hope she heals quickly and perfectly. She has youth on her side! I am cyber hugging both of you as well. Hang in there and may all be well. Blessings.

Thank you all so much, wish I can draw you a diagram of what her bone looks like in an x-ray, you know when you carve a pumpkin you cut the top off and then put it back on perfectly? that is what the surgery site of her bone looks like, right now when they put that x-ray up next to the one they took two days ago, you can see a jagged edge, so far she is not in a cast but she has to keep her boot on and no weight what so ever on it and we have to drive back up to Primary Children's medical center in Salt Lake City to have him do more x-rays and go from there and see what he wants to do with her leg. right now she is in TONS of pain and very nauseated again, this is a major set back for her right now and she is very discouraged in a way. I feel so bad for her, my heart is just breaking for her because I feel so helpless in helping her, I just wish I can take all her pain away for her so she can be a happy teenager.

Hello Leslie Marie:

Lots of hugs coming your way. I know exactly how you feel as a Mom we could always kiss their "booboos" and make it better it is SO hard when you can't. I know exactly what you mean my DS has a brain aneurysm and seizure disorder and yes all you want is to have them be a happy normal teenager.

Sounds like you are a great supportive Mom and that goes a LONG way.

You are in my prayers and many good thoughts coming your way.
