Wish me luck!

ugh, that is horrible. Let me tell you, this happened to me almost a year ago, and I still do not have full use of my right arm. Well, best wishes to your son. I hope it all turns out okay for him.

Thanks me too! They say he may never have proper use of his Right arm too, and yes of course, he is right handed >_< poor kid, I don't know how he has lived with it all this time!

@ Kim: That's actually the right decision. It'll bother him a while for now, but in the long run, hopefully he'll be better off having waited. My best wishes are with him. :)

Thanks Saeed :) I think this is the wisest course of action too, just gets a bit frustrating, his school didn't really understand that he is not in a position to be doing sport etc.. that took a bit of arguing with them to make them see sense.
 
I'm amazed to hear that actually. A doctor's note or a simple glance at his X-ray should have been ample evidence for them to understand the poor lad's situation. I'm just glad that they did see some sense eventually. :)

I hope he's adapting and perhaps thinking of using his left arm and hand permanently for his daily activities and work.

yeah, I'm just happy that I can fully extend it again. I've done a lot of stretches which have helped tremendously.

Anywho, interview in about 3 hours :eek:

Yeah, I think my son would be thrilled if he could straighten his arm.. it must be very uncomfortable.. and the Doctor won't let him use a sling so he has to actually carry the weight of it bent constantly.

Ooo exciting!!! :D

When mine broke, they wouldn't put it in a cast, only gave me a sling. They said it would prevent it from going stiff and sticking in that position. I was instructed to take it out of the sling several times a day and do stretches on it. And it's very uncomfortable. I can compare it to a feeling when you've had your legs folded for a long period of time and you want to stretch...only you can't.
