Kace update

Kace is at the Timberline Scout camp this week, but we picked him up and took him in for his permanent cast on Tuesday. They did an X-ray and said the bones and shifted and he would need surgery to align them. Then after some discussion the doc decided to put a cast on him and try to push the bones together and smash the cast to hold the bones. So, they took an Xray after doing that and found it might have moved one of the bones a little. They are going to leave it for a week and then xray it again to check movement. If the bones move anymore he'll have to have surgery. Bad thing is he'll need 1 surgery to put plates or nails in and another to take them out. Kace was pretty upset about it. He toughed it out when they were pushing on his arm though and still didn't need any medication. So say your prayers that everything will be ok and he won't need surgery. I think that may just ruin his whole summer. He went back up to scout camp though. Hopefully that will take his mind off things.
