Philly and Home and School!!

Cheerleaders playing at RMH

They always find someone to play with :)

After and Before!! If you look at her lower leg on the right xray you will see how knock kneed she was! for the previous 2 weeks we were turning a different screw to move the knee around. If you look at the left xray you will see that the 4 pins are now parallel!! The only thing is that by moving the knee and lower leg around (it hurt her!!) but her knee is very sore while walking since she is walking completely different. The other problem is that it forced the femur bones to overlap, So we now have 2 more weeks of turning the leg lengthening screws at 2x's the previous amount to make it up and get the length we need. She is close but we need the bones separated. but her hip looks great!

The girls playing with Madeline, their buddy :)

all of us at lunch!! 4 UA beauties!! LOVE getting together with other AMC families :)

Gerri and Fuxia having a conversation :)
