Sweet freedom for Josh's arm!

Yay! Josh got his cast off this morning. Aside from a dirty hand, peeling skin and a strange tan line his arm looks great! It was really cool to see the x-ray and see how the bone had healed. I was surprised how much of the bone re-growth you could see. Apparently it will take about 6mo for the bone to be completely healed. He has to wear a splint for the next couple weeks, but that's much better than the cast. He's anxious to get back to playing baseball....just no sliding into home!

Congrats Josh! Be grateful it wasn't your superior left arm. You'd hate to weaken your throwing arm.
