I wanted to update everyone on Gavin's foot and ankle issues. I spoke with his PT yesterday and we got a referral to an orthopedic specialist. We need to get that appointment made today.
However, on the positive side. Yes you heard correctly, I said *positive side*.
Basically, Gavin naturally walks on the inside of his feet, however, now he's walking on outside of his feet. The bones in his feet are actually shifting and he has these bony *knobby* type things on the outside of his feet as a result.
The orthopedic specialist will know if anything needs to be done about that. However, we're thinking that Gavin will likely only need special inserts for his shoes.
That would be friggin awesome if that's the case. Something with Gavin may actually have a simple fix. My fingers are totally crossed, hoping this turns out to be the case.
