I am not saying he has not tried to get out of it, but I think in his little five year old mind, he understands the importance. And he does NOT want to go back in a cast.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Hi Tasha, I haven't checked in for several days but I'm so glad is doing well! I used to do the same thing with and try to 'keep his mind off it' - distraction works wonders!!
