Here Matthew is with his full leg cast. As you can see, he is happily munching on some candy. Sugar is great for easing pain.
He still has moments where the pain seems to overwhelm him but it usually only lasts 15 minutes or so. In those moments even ice cream won’t sooth him. I was told to expect that for about 3 days and to keep him on his pain medicine for at least another day or two and then I would notice an extreme change about the 4th day.
He will be getting some little crutches on Monday.
Ryan made homemade pizza for Matthew tonight. Ryan’s pizza is REALLY yummy! We are all benefiting from Matthew’s spoiling.
Nana brought over lots of sweets, too. I am really hoping that my kids don’t take to the idea that a broken bone is a fun thing but they all seem to be enjoying helping take care of Matthew right now.
Thank you all for your prayers. Matthew is going to be just fine and after a few days he will be hobbling around the house just fine.
