Many of you can remember Logan's accident with his fingertip. We have taken pictures as his finger has healed.
Once again, I am sorry if this is a bit graphic for some of you but we thought you'd like to see how it's coming along.
This first picture is the week after Logan hurt his finger, he is in pre-school and had to wear this full thick cast for 3 weeks. After 3 weeks we saw the doctor and saw Logan's finger for the first time after the accident...we were all very nervous. The Doctor said it was still too early to tell whether his finger would take but that from his perspective things were looking hopeful.
We were instructed to treat Logan's finger everyday with peroxide and an oinment, then rewrap his finger and hand putting the long hard cast back on to prevent him from bumping it. The doctor told us if he bumped it at all or something were to hit it, he would lose the tip for good. For 3 more weeks, we stressed over performing the doctors orders, trying to be as careful as we could.

These pictures are a couple days after we saw the Dr. We are very hopeful, and things are looking promising. His old nail that the doctor put back in after sewing his fingertip on, fell off after 4 days of treating it. Then little by little the dead skin that was sewed on (the black part) started to fall off and a new finger tip started to form.

With Logan's progress, we felt comfortable enough to put him in a hand cast. Jon made him some finger splints to protect his finger from getting bumped. He was glad to get rid of the big hard cast, it was really irritating and scraping his skin.

These other pictures are after 1 week of treatment. He is starting to grow a new nail and the black is almost completely off with a few stiches still attached. When all the black was completely off and Logan saw his finger he cried out with excitement, "Mom, Dad it looks really good huh, it's going to look like my other finger!"
He was so worried it would look different than all his other fingers.

These last 2 pictures I took just yesterday.

This is both of his middle fingers side by side...absolutely amazing! We are so grateful with how well Logan's finger has healed, and thank all those who showed their concern, love and support and kept Logan in their prayers through this difficult time. We feel so blessed and know that the Lord gave us a miracle. I can't say enough times how grateful I am for the power of the priesthood, and we will forever be grateful for this sweet tender mercy for our sweet little boy.
