Another frustrating appointment







Well, you can tell from the title that today's casting didn't go so smoothly. I am taking care of Jess and Kimi's daughter, Layna, 4 days a month and today was the first of those days. A huge thank you to Alicia, who out of kindness, came with us to the appointment to watch Layna while Luca was getting casted.


Luca and I waited in the casting room for 60 mins. While Alicia and Layna were trying to find fun toys in the bigger waiting room. Finally, Dr. Mosca and Dr. J came in. As soon as Luca saw Dr. J he started crying. He is beginning to know the dr. who work on his feet. Dr. Mosca stretch Luca's foot for what seems like forever but really maybe 90 sec. as Luca screamed so hard he could hardly breath. Dr. Mosca then thought for a min. and stretched the other foot. same thing, stopped, thought and then said he was not going to cast him today because his feet are still so swollen. Next Friday he would cast again. Then they both left.
I found Alicia and Layna and we headed home. The whole trip took 3 hours. Thanks again Alicia!!!

  1. We're so sorry for the discouraging appointment. We certainly thank God every time you do have an encouraging appointment like the one before. I'm not surprised that Luca recognizes the doctor...Caeden has recognised the doctor since she was 3 months old b/c of shots (the doctor was shocked)...and obviously she hardly sees him compared to Luca. Love you guys. Heidi
