Guest guest Posted April 25, 2002 Report Share Posted April 25, 2002 Thanks, Marla. Max is actually doing okay. He is so happy to be free from pain!!! The new problem is that the doctor did not do a great job of lining the cast with cotton, so the sharp edges of the fiberglass are killing his toes. Fortunately he has a mom who is pretty creative, so I'm getting out the sports tape and taking care of it. If it's not one thing, it's another.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2002 Report Share Posted April 30, 2002 Thanks, Marla. It seems that Max is a little worse today, so I am taking him back to the doctor tomorrow. He is going to x-ray his foot and, if necessary, remove the cast and put on a new one. I am so exhausted from all of this! Not only do I have a 16 year old to take care of (or supervise is more like it), I teach full-time in the same school as Max and I have obligations there! I'm running as fast as I can.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2002 Report Share Posted May 2, 2002 Marla, I am happy to say that today was a pain free day for Max!!! Yea!!! He is only complaining a little bit about his heels, but that is totally normal for someone who had achilles tendons lengthened. He won't even take Advil for it. I'll just take things one day at a time and hope that each one gets better! Jodi P.S. Regarding more than one child with RSS...Although I know of a few families, the chances are so remote of your having another RSS child that I would not worry too much about it. You would probably want to make sure that your doctor keeps good measurements on your baby, though, once you do become pregnant. And you may want to request that higher level ultrasound that they do for more " at risk " pregnancies. Chances are, though, that you will have a happy, healthy baby. > Hope the implant was not jarred from the fall!! Poor Max!! and I > don't know how you handle these things just about every day it > seems. But it's good to hear that he will be pain free for now at > least. Please keep the updates. I look forward to hopefully hearing > good happy things. Marla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 You are probably in surgery right now but I hope you will post as soon as you can because I am thinking about you, and I'm sure a lot of us are waiting to hear about how you are.
