Matthew- at not quite 3 weeks

Matthew's steri-strips have fallen off, so we can see his "boo-boo" again. It's getting better, although it still looks pretty yucky if you ask me. It just hurts me to see it, but he's doing well, and God was good to him and us! He blistered some underneath all the plaster and where the boot has rubbed, but that has all popped and dried off too. He's still pretty swollen, but the dr. said that he'll have that the rest of his life off & on. He's getting there day by day... One more week and he will step down to a brace that fits inside his shoe that he'll have to wear for a few months.
