We are here in Florida

We are here in Sunny south Florida.  Our condo and surrounding area is really nice. Charles did a great job searching and finding a nice place.

We arrived on Sunday and have been enjoying the pools in our condo community.  Jake had pre op testing and an appointment with Dr. Paley on Monday.  It was a long day of doctor and nurses visits and a lot of waiting around, but we still managed to get in three rounds of pool time (Jake's #1 request).

Dr. Paley and his team of physicians outlined the surgery and lengthening process. The fixator will span the length of his right leg from his hip to the top of his tibia to stabilize the femur and protect his joints during the  lengthening process.  Lots of different variables with the fixator, surgery, recovery and physical therapy. Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers. I will continue to update the blog.

Here are some pics so far.
