The orthopedic surgeon said Drew's thumb would need to be in a cast for 4 weeks. After 4 weeks, he will be checked again to see if it has properly healed. 
This means no swimming for a month and learning to be a lefty. Drew is thrilled.
He is very thankful he didn't need surgery, but not so excited about a cast.
He asked me to post the x-rays. He thought they were very cool.
At least he's enjoying the x-rays and trying to stay positive but no swimming?!? Really stinks that it's about to hit the peak of summer. Hope he feels better soon and that it heals well in a month!
