The Hardware is History

Sorry it's been a while since we updated this blog, but bone takes along time to grow.

Today, Mason had his external frames removed. Under general anesthesia, in a 40 minute procedure, they removed the pins from his legs, ankles and feet.

He will begin physical therapy 3-4 times per week. He can start walking in the swimming pool next week. While the doctor has ordered 6 months of therapy, we think that Mason might be on crutches by the end of the year and walking again shortly thereafter.

We have been truly blessed throughout this ordeal.

Way to go Mason! We are still hoping and praying things heal quickly. We need you walking for the reunion next year.
