Osgood Slatter's disease; some of the very tall people in my family hav

had it, although I did not. When I last did a webcrawl on this one it was

not yet decided whether it was determined solely by height, by fast-

growing of the long bones of the legs, or some genetic element. What

I can say for sure is that all of my giant cousins, one brother (one girl

cousin) who had this survived it handily, and none has as an adult any untoward

consequences. I think that my own shortest kid felt sort of out

of the loop when it did not happen!

Good luck with this one!

Love to all at cfparents,
