RE: Quick update on Hannah

[Guest guest]

I hope the MRI can give some clues as to what is going on. I know that Chris

walks with his feet pointing out, he compensated for the pain in his

ankles/feet that way.

The PT should also give Hannah some relief. Keep us posted! Michele (

Subject: Quick update on Hannah

Hannah has been having some issues lately. She started with severe, constast

knee pain about 8 weeks ago. Since that time she has seen 4 different doctors

and started PT.

The orthopedic doctor we saw on Monday was very concerned with the way she is

now walking. She literally swings her right foot outward when she walks. He

feels her knee pain is a result of something else going on. So yesterday she

had MRI of her lumbar spine. He thinks she has an issue with her either her

lower back or hips or both. He said the MRI should show enough of her hips to

show him what he is looking for.

We have a follwoup visit on Monday. Please pray that the MRI shows what's going

on so we take steps to get her walking normally again to be pain free again.
