Today is the day we have an appointment with the Orthopedic Surgeon to put Wes’ broken bone back into place.
We arrived back at the Valley Immediate Care South Medford and this time our early arrival enabled an earlier procedure appointment.
Once again the doctor and nurses were amazing, their bedside manner perfect and Wes was in the best of care.
The day was rough on Wes though. It was a very painful process of aligning the bone, which needed to be done twice, needles, numerous x-rays. It was horrible to see him in that much pain…
After being discharged we stayed in the parking lot as Wes was still in a lot of pain while the pain relief was wearing off from the alignment and his painkillers had not yet kicked in.
Soon he was feeling a little more comfortable and dopey from the medication so we took the chance to drive the motorhome back to the RV Park. Thankfully, Wes managed to sleep.
It will be a long uncomfortable day for him, however, hopefully from now on his arm will be on the mend.
And I know that I am his mother and I am automatically going to think this way, but we really are proud and amazed at how brave and the courage Wes has shown throughout this whole ordeal. He has been a little champ and taken it all in his stride, maturity well beyond his 6 years…

Oh Kay,
You poor thing. And Wessy too of course, but you look just as pained in the photos. It’s such an awful feeling not being able to make it better…. but I bet you did just by being there.
Here’s to Wessy being on the mend. Please let him know that Aunty Shelley, Aunty Jodie and Great Aunty Jenny are all thinking about him and how brave he is being.
