We've been waiting to find out when Dr. Krajbich will recast Aidan's leg. As previously mentioned, they weren't able to get the full rotation they wanted on Monday. So in addition to recasting, they will try to get the remaining rotation tomorrow morning at 7:30 a.m.
We've been told that they will not have to open up his leg to do this, but will rotate the leg around the metal rod that runs through his tiny femur and into his tibia. They might either pin this all in place, or just use the cast to hold his leg in position while it all heals. We'll find out after the fact tomorrow, as they often decide how to proceed surgically "on the fly."
