The Saga of the Purple Cast

So we've been to Urgent Care one more time and the doctor twice since the last time I wrote about Annemarie's broken arm. It is near impossible to keep her cast on. I was somewhat prepared for this going through a broken arm with Jack when he was two. Originally Annemarie had a splint put on. Then two days later we went back in to have a cast put on. She pulled the cast off the next day. So we went in again and had another cast put on. This time we were on to our third doctor and he was adamant that the cast he put on would stay put. She pulled it off later that night. So when we went in the next time I explained to the doctor how with Jack his cast was cut on both sides (kind of like a clam shell) so when he pulled it off I could put it back on. The cast was then wrapped with an ace bandage and lots of tape. Unfortunately when the doctor put the cut cast on Annemarie it pinched part of her skin and I didn't know because she didn't seem to be in any pain. So now she has this terrible welt/cut on the inside of her arm (if it's not one thing it's something else!) Anyhow...she needs to keep her cast on until next Wednesday and as you may imagine I'm counting down the days. As of right now Annemarie pulls her cast off and I put it on usually four times a day.

Here's a recent video of our little escape artist.
