capsulodesis is when the child has a dislocation and they put the bone back in place and tighten the tendons to whole it there

Must be! I've corrected alot of my spelling tonite also.Have been checking out your website.Great info. Are you still in law suit. We just settled with one doctor and are awaiting trial with the other. They only had the least legal amount of insurance possible.You think that would help but then you have to get a judges approval to use any of the funds. So now I not only have medical,3 doctors,3 therapists, to deal with ,I also have to deal with 2 lawyers,a judge and an accountant. I don't mean to complain but if anyone could know how much this injury takes over not only the life of the child, but the lives of the family, they'd be tooting a different horn. I know God said he'd only give us what we could bear,I try to tell myself he thinks I'm strong enough to handle it.

I know exactly what you are talking about. My daughter (Bailey age 3) got her capsulodesis brace off this week and everything is completely crazy(her pain, therapy 3 times a week, and all the exercises, we also have a 4 month old baby.) I have found myself to be very angry! And have been questioning why God choose us. I have always told myself to that God knew we could handle it. I wish I felt like I could handle it. I sure hate the way it affects our families life. Its awful to know others feel this way too but it also helps to know we are not alone.
