Foot Follow-Up

Hailey went back to the doctor yesterday for her follow-up xray since her swelling on her ankle has gone down. It was confirmed that the potential fracture was indeed NOT fractured and her wound on her heel was healing perfectly. Hailey had started walking more on her own by this past Saturday (with brides of donuts and popsicles!) I knew she could do it, but she was just scared of it potentially hurting. I also told her she couldn't do ANYTHING (but sit there) if she didn't walk...no T.V., no games, no friends, no coloring! Mean Mom (although I did give her a donut when she did). For the days prior she had resorted to crawling everywhere and refusing to walk on it. Slowly by Saturday evening she was running around. She couldn't wait to show Dr. McDonald (we LOVE her) that she could jump and balance on her ankle! :) And even better, we got her shoe on tonight for soccer practice and there wasn't a single complaint about the heel of her shoe rubbing her wound! Yay!!!!!!

Her stickers say, "I had an X-Ray" and "Picture Perfect"
