Legg Perthes Update

Well...I got some news.


I talked to the nurse at Scottish Rite yesterday and she said, "Doctor says, No surgery at this time."


...


Yep...that's it.  No further explanation.  And OF COURSE, it's the Holidays...and OF COURSE, he has a family...and OF COURSE we have to let him enjoy his holidays...


So we'll have to wait to find out why the change of direction until after the first of the year.  I'm somewhere between giddy and terrified...


Just to clarify...the break down of the femoral head would have happened to this extent no matter what...the issue is more which surgery will we use during the regrowth phase.


Thank you for your prayers...keep 'em up.


See you around...
