Follow up after surgery

Torah has been doing great since we had her surgery. She recovered very well and since she did not have to wear a cast (only a brace for 3 weeks), she has pretty much recovered fully except it will take another 2-4 months for her bones to grow back together. We were told at the follow up appointment, sometime next year we will go back down for an overnight visit so that the doctor can go back in and take the plate and screws out.
Torah's therapist was very happy with the range of motion that she has now and we have begun to do pool therapy once a week in addition to some other PT to help her get some strength back in her legs. I am really hoping that this will help her one day be able to stand up on her own or at least with some support.




We also were able to get her new wheelchair and although it is big for her right now - it is very nice and will hopefully fit her for the next 5+ years.
