what's new

Its been a while. The only thing that is new on our schedule is that Leighton had to go see Dr. Larsen. For those of you who don't know who this is this is my moms, dads, uncle, grandma Searles and my foot doctor. We are on a first name bases with him seeing how we go so often. Well Leighton had been walking funny, and then her came up to me and said "mom there is something on my foot and it hurts" as I looked at his foot I was able to see a marble sized lump about 2 inches under his ankle. So I called Clark and he told me to bring him in. It took us about a week to get him in but for that week Leighton paniced he was afraid taht they would have to do surgery. I kept telling him that if that was something that needed to happen there was a lot of steps to get to that point it wasn't a first thing. Well we got there this morning and Clark said that it was from extra bones in the foot that about 30% of the population has and that it can be fixed with orthotics. It was irritated because of the cleets worn for baseball and him always favoring that foot. However Clark wanted to take x-rays just to be sure. Well he came in and said there is good news and bad. To this I asked what the good was and he said it was just like he thought just some extra bones that were inflamed. So I then asked what the bad was and Clark responded that he had feet like me and my mom. All and all he is going to be as difficult as I am when it comes down to medical stuff :(
