We didn't really know what to expect when we took Madison to see the doctor yesterday. From the look of the x-ray, Kerry and I just knew that something needed to be done. In the back of my mind I was expecting them to say that they didn't need to do surgery but that they would need to manipulate the bones back in place.
So we were very surprised when the doctor said she was fine and that the broken collarbone would heal on its own of the course of 6-10 weeks. We didn't need to do anything. No surgery. No manipulation. No brace. Just the simple sling she has been wearing. And take it easy on the shoulder.
Kerry and I are relieved. Madison is relieved and doing well. Last night was the first night since the accident that she slept in her bed instead of on the couch. Which means we all slept better.
