He had some major reconstruction done today. It included having tendons moved/stretched in his right foot, breaking and resetting some fused bones in the same foot, and (my personal favorite) rotating the shin bones in BOTH legs.
He has casts on both legs for 6 weeks. Plus he has permanent plates and pins in each shin. The doctor assures me he will not set off metal detectors...we shall see.
Of course, Emmett did beautifully. He was as cute as ever and won the hearts of all the nurses in Recovery and on his floor. He really is a lady killer!

| It only took about 2 minutes for him to master the wheelchair that he will have for the next 6 weeks! |
Go Emmett! What a trooper. Man, that does not sound fun. He is pretty awesome.
