Alison had another appointment with Dr. Craig today. The in-and-out appointment we had last time did prove to be just a fluke, and we were there today for well over an hour, most of that time just waiting and waiting and waiting -- the actual time with Dr. Craig being about 10 minutes. We had an unexpected set of hip x-rays done today, which was probably a good thing since she hasn't had her hips x-rayed in a couple of year, so that added to the wait time. When Dr. Craig came in I told him I hoped that her hips were fine because I was really not prepared to deal with bad hip news. And as luck would have it, her hips look great! We even have pictures. :) We were prepared to hear that there might be some foot surgery in our future, since we had some concerns about Alison's right foot, but he said he thought it looked fine. He also said it looked to him that she wasn't intoeing as much as she used to. That was funny to us because when we watch her walk it seems that it's still the same, if not getting worse. At any rate, she'll still be wearing her twisters for the forseeable future and he thought her SMO might be getting a little short, so we have an order for a new one. So now we need to decide whether or not to try and get it taken care of before the end of the year, since our deductible has been met, or wait and let it be applied to next year's deductible. Ah the joys of dealing with insurance companies. Still, it was a good appointment and since there were no big concerns at this point, we don't have to go back until the end of March.
