Austin's doing much better. The big boys are back to fighting again, so all is kind of back to normal. He's been complaining today of some pain in his arm, but refuses any meds. Also, if he gets to walking too much, his back starts to hurt. The cast is heavy and bulky and he compensates by walking kind of crooked. He's also pretty irritable, but that's part discomfort, frustration, and not sleeping well (remember he can't suck his thumb).
Last night he woke up screaming in pain... I don't even think he was fully awake. I asked him where it hurts- thinking it may be a muscle cramp- and he screamed, "WHERE IT BROKE!!" I forced some Ibuprofen down his throat and after a good 20 minutes of screaming, he passed out for the night.
We have a doctor appt tomorrow for his surgical follow-up. Hopefully everything is set properly and he's starting to heal. Hopefully we won't need anything much more to get this done.

One of dave's co-workers owns a bakery and made this "Get Well Soon" cookie cake for Ozzy. SWEET!
