Will's Collarbone ~ Follow-Ups

Will's recovery from his broken collarbone went really well!  He only had a faint bruise and it wasn't there very long.  He had to wear a sling all the time for about 3 weeks, and then just wore it to school and eventually only wore it to PE and Recess.  He was restricted from those activities, but it really didn't slow him down much! 




 Check-up #1 ~ April 1st
The doctor said Will's collarbone was beginning to heal.  It will always be separated, but with time the bone will grow between the break and fuse it together.  No surgery or setting was done.




 Check-up #2 ~ April 23rd
This time it's easier to see the shadow looking part where the bone is beginning to grow between the break ~ it's healing nicely!


 Check-up #3 ~ May 13th
Our last appointment and X-rays.  Everything is healing right on schedule and Will was released for all activities except doing push-ups or hanging from the money bars!
