[tri-med] Re: Soleah's surgery

I'm sorry . . . I said the wrong number--she was at 56+ and moving quickly.  
The last time they x-rayed was april and she was at 56 so he did not want to 
wait past the summer.  The doc (and several others concurred) that 60 degrees 
was the end of the safe zone for her.  I think they felt the results would be 
better done sooner too as they could only correct "so" much.  But she looks 
great--I cannot believe the difference especially in her shoulders and gait.  
When did Pamela have her surgery?

Prayers and all God's blessing for Soleah's surgery. It's interesting how soon 
your getting hers done. Pamela was 46 for a long time and they finally did 
something when she was 72 degrees. So all the best.
