See ya later, splint!

Caeden saw the orthopedic specialist again today, and has improved so much that he doesn't have to wear the fiberglass splint anymore!  He did great with resistance testing, and only had pain during one. So, now he has a compression sleeve and the sling only.  (Still no contact sports, but he can participate in P.E. activities that don't require contact--specifically a game they'll play tomorrow with foam balls!)  He can even go without the sling at home, and is supposed to exercise his elbow 4 times a day.  Although he wishes he could jump right back into wrestling (especially for the tournament this weekend and home meet next week) and can't, we are so pleased with how quickly he is healing!
