Update on Lizzy's arm

Lizzy got her "Packers" cast off a few weeks ago and they pulled the pins out and took a few more xrays. Her arm is healing but there wasn't enough new bone growth to go without the cast, so they recasted her for a few more weeks. She got the second cast off after Christmas and is doing really well. She still doesn't straighten it out all the way but is stretching it a little more every day. She is supposed to avoid some activities like sledding for a few more weeks until her follow up appointment, but is coping well.
The two pins that were in Lizzy's elbow.

Deep breath-and out come the pins!
