"It's the wrong leg, its the wrong leg!"

is all we could say to the student doctor as she brought Punk in the waiting room to see us. There was a look of much confusion on her face as we kept repeating those words. To her, she thought we were telling her they casted the wrong leg....nope! We were trying to tell her that this is a new break on a different leg than last time. But we couldn't get that out of our mouth...the only thing that came out was "it's the wrong leg!"
With us being out of town yesterday, there was some confusion as we tried to relay Punk's medical history over the phone. He DIDN'T break the same leg after all! No way! Punk is never afraid of anything and breaking legs certainly doesn't scare him away from being a daredevil! Apparently he thought it would be a good idea to see what it was like to have a cast on his right leg instead of his left. So he did.
I really don't know if the break on the different leg rather than the same place on the same leg is a good thing or not. Right now, surgery is still on for tomorrow to do the bone graft and metal plate. After talking with the doctor tomorrow morning before surgery we will know more. He wanted to go with those extreme measures when he thought it was the same break on the same leg. I'm not sure what this new information will mean for his surgery.
The good news is that we did get to see him today and snuggle with him for a little bit. Yes, I cried, I just wanted to take him home with me! I don't want to wait for 2-3 more days! The house is SO quite without him. Maddoxx is bored out of her mind and either sleeps or mopes around until we mention Punk's name and she goes to look for him.
Punk was nice a drugged up when we saw him. Poor little guy was so out of it. They have him on a lot of pain medication. I don't think he's feeling much of anything. :) I am anxious to see the pictures the doctor took at the initial consultation. The student doctor today said the leg was at a 90 degree angle....yuck!! But I still want to see! Say a few extra prayers that surgery goes well and he handles the anesthesia better than last time! And so the Punk saga continues...
P.S. check out the size of that cast!! It really is as big as the picture makes it look! I couldn't believe it when I saw his little puppy paw sticking out the end! They REALLY have his leg stretched out in there!
