Graduated!

Since Emma's left hip was still slightly shallow, she had been going for Xrays every 4 months versus every 6 months since coming out of the harness. Yesterday was her 4 month Xray, 1 day after my 37th Birthday. I figured that had to bring some luck, no?

It was nerve wracking to say the least. That is one of the hardest parts about hip dysplasia. You don't get the diagnosis you want which is "Great, the hip is in place, see you never!" There is constant follow up visits for years. Each follow up visit brings on the shakes for me... you just never know.

The great news is the left has caught up with the right and we don't have to go back for 6 months! We graduated!

Here's to hoping all of your follow up visits make you as happy as this one made me.
Continued healing...
