We realize we will need to have a wheelchair for him when we are there because I'm sure walking will not be too easy yet.

    But somebody just told me that when her daughter broke her arm, after she got her cast off, their doctor said no thrill rides for quite a while. Has anybody else ever been told that when going to DL after a broken bone? Maybe it was because it was an arm and would be more exposed on roller coasters? I would call our doctor but he just went out of town for 2 weeks. I am an obsessive planner and I'm just trying to figure out ASAP if I need to be planning a different summer vacation.
