Yesterday was a cast away of the best kind. After four weeks of being side-lined with a broken arm, Brennan got to throw his full cast AWAY. What a happy day for all of us!
The timing of his injury has been a source of discouragement for him this past month, as he has been unable to get it wet or fully participate in our new island life. His heart was already struggling with leaving friends and family; this injury really seemed to be the tipping point of plummeting his spirit on many days.
The good news, however, is that we are two-thirds of the way there. He will wear a shorter splint for another 13 days and then have total freedom to be a crazy boy once again! We even found some rainbow chip frosting for our cast away celebration cake. Score!
