Cast is off!

I forgot to take pix of Jake getting his cast removed yesterday. Addy went with us so I was protecting her ears from the saw! He did great, the doc was very pleased, the break is all healed up and he is good to go! His tan line was cracking me up! He got to actually play at baseball practice tonight. He said it was the best practice ever! Probably because he actually got to play after six weeks!
I think the thing I am most thankful for is the fact that he can actually wash his hands again! It was such a pain for him to wash his hands, what a luxury that we take for granted! His right arm is just a bit smaller than his left but I'm sure he will have it bulked back up in no time!

After we got his cast off we took Addy over to the hospital to drop off another stool sample to re-test to check for Clostridia. Yep, she still has it! So the 10 days of Flagyl didn't touch it! Grr! So she will start on Vancomycin tomorrow. The pharmacy wasn't able to get it prepared today. She will take it for 14 days then we will retest in the week after that. I just LOVE our new pediatrician (well he was new in July!), he called Addy's GI doc up in Kansas City today before he called me. He's still concerned that Addy may have a chronic case of this infection. It would definitely explain all of the tummy problems she has. The GI was the one that wanted to put her on the Vancomycin. It's a pretty powerful antibiotic from what I understand. I am really hoping this kicks it! This poor girl has had enough! However, as you can see, she is back to her adorable little self today!
