We are now almost 2 weeks out from surgery. Maya is doing very well and has even learned how to walk, run, climb, and jump with the full leg cast. We had a rough first week with pain management but that seems to be behind us. Keeping her down and her foot elevated wasn't exactly easy to do with her activity level. Now we only hope and pray the cast lasts until the 14th when they put on the new cast. Her activity level is such that the bottom of her cast is falling apart. I think I have had a harder time adjusting to the full leg cast than her. It is difficult to carry her and it is difficult to dress her and bathe her. Jan. 20th is the date she gets the final cast off!!! Oh, what a day that will be!!!! I am not sure who will be more excited her or me?!?!?
I added a few pics we took when we first got her out of recovery. Sleeping peacefully with pain meds and an epidural still in effect.
