No More Shoes!

A few weeks ago we went to see the foot specialist and we were told that Brendan is officially DONE with his magic shoes!!!! He is still a bit pigeon-toed when he walks, but his feet are straight when he stands still and sits with his legs out front. The shoes did their job and corrected his bowed legs. As far as the remaining problem, the orthopedist explained that most children simply grow out of being pigeon-toed. We will still need to go in for a check-up once a year to make sure that he does not regress, but he firmly believes that the problem will correct itself by age 6. If it remains, or gets worse again, then we will have to consider surgical options. But he explained that the chance of this happening is one in a million. What a relief!
