Her knee was extremely unstable and would pop out if you just pushed it gently with your finger.
This condition could lead to a ripped ACL (which we though she had - see first post), and severe arthritus later, which is irreversable.
So, after much consultation and painful consideration, we decided to go for the surgery. She was extremely active and playful but after the "incident" she stopped being the playful 2-1/2 year old, due to no confidence in that knee. |
then sounds like you made the right choice as she is in pain and lifting alot but whether she has this surgery or not she will have arthritis and she will also have scar tissue from surgery as well so you will not avoid that issue.
