The Cam Walker

No it's not a person, it's a big bulky black boot Paige has to wear on her foot for the next several months. She's doing fine in it, though she wasn't happy that we had to cancel her bouncy castle party for her soccer team....

Here she is in her cam walker:


When we left the doctor on Wednesday we were set to do a regiment of Motrin dosages for 3-4 weeks, and then yesterday the doctor called with more info. After going over her chart and MRI's, and X-rays she now believes it's swlling on her Navicular bone and in order to heal it, we need to keep it from moving around and cause more swelling.



Hopefully by next week I'll have an answer as to exactly how long she has to wear it. All I know right now is, it could take several months to heal.
