On Sept. 29th Sara woke up in the morning and couldn't walk on her foot. After many doctor visits, xrays, blood work, etc. Dr. Faux figured out that she has Complex Regional Pain. Strep attacked the nerves in her foot, so if you barely touched her foot she was screaming in pain. We go to Physical Therapy 2 times a week and she has to do exercises 3 times a day to help her nerves realize it really isn't in as much pain as it thinks it is. It has been a very slow process, but we are improving. One of the exercises is she has to pick up these balloons with her toes and put them in a different pile. It would take her 15 plus minutes, but now she is picking up 3 at a time. Yahoo!!! There might be an end to all of this.
