Sorry I fell a little behind.
So, I took Bailey up to Primary Children's Hospital where he met with Dr. Stott. Dr Stott said that Bailey would be a good candidate for surgery to correct the rotation on his legs. The surgery is called an osteomy.
Surgery is scheduled for January 29th. It is expected that he will spend 4 nights in the hospital. He will be restricted to a wheel chair for approximately 5 weeks to allow his legs to heal. At that point I believe he will be allowed to start putting some weight on his legs.
This will make school and home very interesting. We will have to move him upstairs. It will take everyone in our family's help to make this work.
He is hoping that he will be healed up by mid summer so he can start rehab to play football.
