We finally saw some doctors, first the Anesthesiologist then the Orthopedic Surgeon. Neither had a great bedside manner. Both seemed cool and matter of fact, a stark contrast to our emotional state. We signed the consent for general anesthesia, a scary thought for any parent. The Orthopedic Surgeon told us more about the cast; what to expect. He won’t we able to move much, just sit on the bed. It will take 6-12 weeks to heal, oh, and it will smell. We watched as they wheeled him off to the OR. It’ll take an hour. Take care of my baby, I prayed.
