Scoliosis

However that is spelt. Well, our trip to the Dr. was kind of crazy. Lets just say, Lexy managed to break the footrest on the stroller. I looked like a Parent who had no control over her children.
Anyhow. Jackson's curve is now something like 43 degrees. So he will be put into a brace as well. He is just starting to walk. So he will have to learn again. He will probably get his brace sometime in August. He also needs to have an MRI to make sure there are no other underlining causes. That will be in August too because the soonest they have available we will be out of town. Lexy's back is now at a 26 degree curve. Which is pretty good for only wearing at night. However she complains when we put it on. She may need a new one. And if we are in the car very long, she complains of her back hurting and starts leaning forward or to the side. So its uncomfortable for her. Her legs. Well they say its pretty savear (can't spell, pretty bad). But nothing has been decided.
