hard casting



On Wednesday John took Luca in for his weekly casting not knowing that it would be a hard one. Dr. Mosca said it was time to start stretching his foot because the scar tissue was already beginning to form and he brought his feet to almost 90 degrees. The casting and the next 24 hours were very painful for Luca. We loaded him up on Tylenol and Ibu. but he was still in a great deal of pain. Jamie came over and helped Luca and I make it through the day as John was at work. A family from church (the Lanes) also watched him that evening. We were very thankful for all of the help and that he is feeling better today. Hopefully we will change the casts on Monday as his feet look swollen under the casts and we want to be able to contiue this hard process. Thanks for your prayers even for the the unexpected.
