Daniel's Latest X-Ray

Daniel had an x-ray taken in the UK on Friday which we emailed to Dr Paley in the US. He advised that everything looks fine and it is all in a good position which is great news. We will have another x-ray in another month.

Here is a close up photo of Daniel's fixator which you can see in the x-ray. We took one with bandages on so it is not too graphic for those with weak stomachs (namely Grandpa Budge!)



It has been six weeks since the operation and Daniel is doing really well. He crawling around a lot now. It has been great for Max having a crawling partner, they have become really good buddies! Daniel has returned to nursery two days a week which has motivated him to become more active and distracts him from his fixator. He still has some pain but knows to have a little rest before moving about again. Daniel had a plaster mould taken of his leg on Friday to build him a new prosthetic. We are very excited because he is now big enough to have a real prosthetic foot with toes!
