Kacy has done great with her cast! Even though she has done well, I am so hoping that she gets it off this week. She doesn't really complain too much about it anymore, and it really only itched one day. I am so glad that this happened now and not in the summer. I think the fact that it hasn't been 100 degrees has really helped the itchy factor!
Funny moments:
She was stepping on Adilyn's foot on "accident", and Adilyn was screaming. Kacy said, "I sorry, this cast just soooooo crazy!"
We have to bathe her sitting on the toilet because otherwise the water drips into her cast. One day Cory got creative and held her by the feet and dipped her head in the water to wash her hair. She laughed hysterically the whole time!
She has learned how to get up the stairs at the playground pretty well. She says, "Up is gold shoe first, down is cast leg first!" ("gold shoe" because she wears her silly gold sparkly shoes 99% of her life)!
Her classmates thought her cast was pretty cool, and apparently they all got to touch it the first day she went back to school.
She always says things like, "I can't run with my cast. I can't play soccer with my cast. I can't wear princess shoes with my cast." She just lists things she can't do, even if she doesn't really want to do it at the present time.
I heard her struggling in the bedroom one night after bath. I went in to see what was wrong. She said, "I can't get my jammies over this big, huge leg!"
She gets stuck in certain positions sometimes, but she doesn't get too upset. She just yells for some help, and we unstick her!
Kacy is a trooper, and I am so glad that our first cast situation was with her!
