    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Hey everone! I had to tell you all I went back to the GOOD doctor today, the pediatric orthopedic surgeon and the brace is GONE!! The fracture he said he couldn't even find on the Xrays and I could get to a 15 degree angle extended and to a 125 degree angle on flexion which he said is great and know that that darn brace is gone it feels wayy better and the swelling went down almost right away.

    I have physical therapy 3 times a week for 3 weeks and then go back for what he said should for sure be a full release to do whatever I please!!

    ANDDDD my favorite part.... He said no sports EXCEPT swimming which i can do as often and much as possible!! So tomorrow I will go to practice and do soemthing more than just kick WOOHOO!!!

    Thanks everyone for all the help cus the last month hasn't been much fun and you all helped me feel better alot of times.

    Alright!!

    Hey Katie -

    You sound so HAPPY!! I bet you didn't think time would pass quickly enough after the wreck. Well, you've done it. You've had a positive attitude. You found a kind, intelligent, caring doctor. You are going to recover.

    Appreciate every work out and opportunity to exercise.

    Your family deserves a big thank you from you for the support and encouragement they've given you.

    Stay healthy. Swim like a fish. Way to go, kid!!

    Barb
