Arm and Elbow Fractures

Virginia DeWind

When Ginny broke her arm in May we were worried that it would put a dampener on her summer fun. After a very successful surgery with Dr. Fabricant and the awesome team at HSS, Ginny kicked off the summer with a cast on that went all the way up to her shoulder. No cast could hold Ginny back though, and within a few weeks of getting it off she was already almost back to 100%.

Now as we hit the midpoint of summer she is fully recovered and taking on new challenges at the playground daily! For what could have been a quite scary experience for a 3 year old (and her parents!) things turned out to be not that bad thanks to Dr. Fabricant and his team reassuring us every step of the way. We are very thankful to have come to HSS!
