wounded wing

this baby had surgery on tuesday to remove a big mancha from her arm, it went well but everyone especially her mom was nervous because it’s surgery and she’s a baby.  the sad part is she has bruises all over because they couldn’t find a vein for the iv because this baby is super chubby.

now she has a big dressing, covered by an ace bandage, covered by an immobilizing soft cast from her shoulder to her wrist.  when she waves her arm around she looks like a birdy with a broken wing.  I told her mom that I think that should be her halloween costume, cause it’d be super cute and really sad all at the same time, just as is her waving this club of an arm around.  she gets velcro toys stuck to it and it’s super funny.  only problem is, now she’s impossible to dress because as soon as you take off the immobilizing cast she pulls off the ace bandage and tries to play (this baby is the squirmiest baby ever, she also has a tendency now to smack you in the face with her huge right arm).  she may not be decent for the next two weeks.
