Update

So Crew finally got the 2nd pin out of his arm (last tuesday, I'm a little behind on the blogging). It looked so nasty. The skin was growing outside his arm up on the pin. It looked kinda like a tumor, maybe. When the pin came out, it bled a lot. The nurse ended up having to put on some silver nitrate, or something like that, to cauterize it. Then they wrapped it up and put on a new cast. Crew has quite a cast collection now: white, green, blue, and now red. Hopefully this will be the last cast; all that's left is black and then he will only have pink and purple to choose from. This cast is a short one so he can use his elbow again. The other casts have been almost to his shoulder. His elbow has been a little stiff and sore but he is so excited to use it again. I did catch him sticking a spoon, a ruler, and pencil (not all at the same time) down his cast to scratch his arm though. It must feel nice to be able to after weeks of no scratching.
