Kaylin went to her orthopedic surgeon on Friday. Every time, he says surgery may be necessary on her hip, but he wants to wait and see what her body will do on its own. Friday he finally ruled out surgery! I was very happy to hear that.
Her hip is still not 100%, but believe me, it looks so much better on x-ray than it did four years ago! He said he imagines she will have joint pain/problems by high school age, but that is something we can treat alternatively, without surgery. And he still says she'll end up with an early (as in 40's-50's) hip replacement.
But just knowing how far she has come is pretty incredible.
