A grinning mid-sized boy lay on the table in MCH’s ortho room (grinning, of all things!). An ortho technician raised his electric buzz-saw. Still the boy smiled. I leaned over to his silent mother. “How long has he been in this body cast?”
His mother answered, “3 months. A long 3 months.” No wonder the boy was now smiling.
“So, you want to play soccer again?” I asked, and he shouted, “Yes!” He had to shout. The buzz-saw had begun cutting off his cast.
