OT: Sarah's surgeon and we couldn't be more delighted!
Deb,
Thanks! We are delighted that she didn't do any irreversible damage and of course when she decides what she wants to do regarding the other leg, we'll support her.
Thanks again,
Barb

Hi Ann,
Yes, we are all relieved that there is no permanent damage from the fall. She still has some evidence of a strain and the resulting swelling, but it's temporary and manageable. Thank goodness there was no irreversible damage.
Thanks for your concern and support,

Thanks Lisa!
We are doing some back to school shopping for her today as we prepare to have her start her HS career when we get back. I know that she'll have some things that no one else will have.
It looks like she may decide to have the other leg done next year. We'll have to wait and see I guess, it's not a decision that I can make for her. It's one she'll have to come to herself.
I'll talk to you soon.

Hi Mare,
I'll be sure that Sarah sees your note. She still loves the goodies you sent when she had her surgery.
As always, thanks for the understanding and support,
