Recovery

Easton hasn't been phased by his surgery (with much relief to his parents!). This is a picture of him within an hour of being home from the hospital.
And, it didn't take long for him to start climbing again. Notice he still has the hospital bracelet on... and I took it off pretty quick.
I took him back to the doctor the morning after surgery. The doctor removed Easton's bandage, and thought that he looked better than most! Easton's eye is quite black and blue - makes him look tough, right?!?! The black and blue has quickly turned yellow, which is never pretty but always a good sign.

There are four layers of stitches - in hopes that he won't fall and break the wound completely open. Do they know this boy, or what! The bottom three layers should dissolve on their own. He goes back next Monday to have the top layer of stitches removed. What a trooper he has been. It amazing me how resilient little kids are!

Thanks again for all of your thoughts and prayers!
