Life in a Cast: Day 8 - Bringing up the Calcium Intake

Everyone knows the popular slogan: Milk. It does a body good. More specifically, milk does bones good. Strong bones are built on calcium. A broken bone needs even more nourishment to heal quickly and effectively. Taking this message to heart, Rai, while healing that broken leg of yours (even though your cast looks so great with everyone's birthday messages on it), you've upped your calcium intake to incredible levels.
At one year of age, it is recommended that babies are graduated from breast milk or formula to cow's milk or another type of milk. We went for goat's milk and, to our surprise, your beloved formula was something you had no issues at all parting with. The moment you got your first taste of goat's milk, you said: "Formula? What's that?"
In fact, you loved goat's milk so much that you doubled your daily milk intake. Bottle after bottle after bottle, you guzzled that smooth, white fluid as if it was ambrosia. But, that wasn't enough. We couldn't refill the bottle quick enough. So, we decided to experiment a little bit.
We filled your bottle with almond milk. "Goat's milk? What's goat's milk?" you said after downing 6 ounces of almond milk in under 30 seconds. Next was hemp milk. "Almond milk? Who cares about almond milk. Give me more hemp milk!" And so it went as we tried milk after milk, finishing with hazelnut milk which yielded similar results.
Now, you're a milk drinking machine. We could put any milk into that bottle of yours and be assured that it will disappear quickly, leaving not a trace but a few drops and bubble on the botto of the bottle. Whatever it takes to heal your fractured tibia, Rai, we're with you. We're just happy to keep listening to that content "glug, glug... glug, glug" of yours.
