I hope she's better soon. |
He said she had grade one. She turned 1 year old on June 22nd. She only needs the right knee done possibly one day. She didn't injure it that I know of. She is always very hyper, running to and fro, jumping up and down. The only thing I can think of that could cause it to slip is when she flies low to the floor and rounds the hallway corners to get the ball. OH!! It just came to mind that we have hallway carpet runners. I wonder if she might have gotten her legs under one or tripped on one. That's a very high possibility. They are coming up NOW!!
He said about 2 weeks recovery. He didn't mention a cast, but then he may not have told me every detail. Nope, he said $350. He is not an orthopedic surgeon that I know of and I don't know if he is board certified. How would I find that out, short of asking him. Is there a way to find it on the web? And, how do I find a list of Orthopedic surgeons around my area?
Would it be wise to go ahead and find an ortho surgeon and take her to be examined?
You have brought up some good points that I need to remember if and when Betty Boop needs surgery.
Thanks!
