Athletes = Trip to the Physical Therapist

I don't know what is it about my kids, but I seem to spend more time at the PT office than I would like.

Robert's severe's disease has kicked back in - really giving him a painful time in his feet. He is now in orthodics, icing his feet three times a day and exercising at home regularly with his PT drill.

Jessica's knee has patella tendonitis, but we also found out she requires orthodics (the expensive kind since she has stopped growing). Her issues are a little more complicated...YUCK!

You know the song - the foot bone's connected to the leg bone, the leg bone's connected to the knee bone, the knee bone's connected to the ... and so on... well, that's why there is such a bigger problem with Jessica's situation. Feet problems, causing knee problems compounded with knee problems - all causing leg/hip problems.

It will all work out!
