On Tuesday, May 29th Scott was able to see an orthopedic surgeon to evaluate the injury to his left elbow. We took the X-Ray films that were taken in the emergency room at St. Joseph's Hospital the night they arrived.
After a detailed inspection of both the films and Scott's arm, Dr. Alan Rothbart told us there were no fractures, and no apparent ligament or tendon damage.
After he provided Scott with a prescription for an anti-inflammatory medication and showed him some exercises to help in the healing we returned to Trish's hospital. Scott will have a return visit in two weeks to evaluate his progress.
We are all pleased that Scott's injury will heal quickly, as he will need all his strength for the challenges ahead.
