Fran gets an air cast on her ankle

Today Fran went to the doctor. They took the temporary cast off that was put on after surgery and put on an air cast instead.

This is the temporary cast.

What was under the temporary cast.

What was left of the temporary cast after being removed.

The sutures are still in place. They are scheduled to be taken out next week.

The new air cast. It just buckles on and then is pumped up with a little hand operated air pump.
