Jimmy-Ray Perthes update 1 year later

Jimmy-Rays Perthes update 1 year later

Well yesterday Jimmy-Ray went to Scottish Rite Hospital one year after he was diagnosed with perthes. His hip is still rebuilding. Dr. Kim said that he does not have to wear his brace at night anymore. So this means no more brace. They want him to stay on his crutches for six more months applying 20% pressure to his right leg. This is all very good news! I was hoping that they where going to say no more crutches too. However he seems to be fine with it. He is one tough little dude. I am super proud of him and the way he has handled this whole ordeal. His hip will continue to heal and rebuild. hopefully in six months we can toss the crutches!!! Cant wait for this to be over with. I bet Jimmy-Ray really cant wait. Thanks for every ones prayers.
