Permanently Bent
Sarah will NOT move her arm. It looks as if it's permanently bent, kind of like she has this invisible cast on her arm. So yesterday, we went back to see the surgeon, as we are concerned that she hasn't straightened it out yet and it's been two weeks since the cast came off. At the doctor's office, her arm was re-xrayed, and Dr. Aminian reassured me that the bones have healed nicely and there appears to be no physical reason why she can't bend her arm. He feels as though it's all mental with her, that she's mostly just afraid. He added that the joint is probably stiff, but she should be able to move it more. So we go back in two weeks, and if she is still not straightening her arm out, he'll send her to physical therapy.
