Not two surgeries but one...


Paxton won't have his "special toes" corrected this summer because of the risks of anesthesia due to his age.  (He has ligament contractures on his 3rd toe bilaterally.) Something to look forward to next year :0

Josh did have his knee surgery this past Monday though.  Here's a picture of him in pre-op:



He was really nervous!  Good news though - they hopefully found the source of his pain.  The doctor removed this fatty tissue on the left side and repaired a ligament tear. 


He's dealing with all of his restrictions pretty well.  No driving and limited walking.  Follow up is Tuesday and we hope that he'll be released to normal activity then.

that was sprung on us. I had no idea of surgery or anything wrong with his knees. Hope for a quick recovery. Pax will be fine with his toes for now. i think theyre cute.
