Lucky Foot Update
I took Tony and his bent up foot self to the Doctor today. We got there around 8:45…appointment at 9:00 saw the doctor at 9:20. Tony was none too happy about the wait…but then fell asleep about 3 minutes before the doc rolled in. He was smiley happy baby then. The doctor said his foot was looking fine, gave me the same info he gave me the first visit, said come back in 6 month, and charged me.
He did say if Tony wasn’t standing or walking on that foot correctly, we may have to put it in a brace to keep it in the correct orientation.
Now Tony has his own idea of what is fun, so when the doctor was manipulating his foot and stretching it out, Tony was guffawing. It was awesome. The doctor thought he was pretty darn cute. I like it that my baby made the doctor want to spend a little time playing with him, instead of running off to the next bent up body part. I laugh in doctors offices and hospitals myself. He comes by it naturally.
I know I kid a lot about his foot. I am worried that he’ll go through some issues, both physical and mental, because of this. But, I have seen what others are going through with their little one, rather it be behavioral or health issues, and we are truly blessed. Tony is an amazing little guy. I hope that his parents attitude about his foot goes along way in the healing…either that or it will damage him for life and our flesh will burn in the lowest level of hell, while we scream for a moment’s reprive, for all eternity. Well…as long as their are naps, that’s ok.
