{What is the cause of the dislocation? Children like our kids often suffer
from hip dislocation because of the low tone and using standing frames is
one way of helping to prevent the dislocation.}
Jonathan went into cardiac arrest 2 years ago and they took out his trach
thinking he would pass on. He has lived for 2 years in this brain damaged
state, so he is not mobile at all.
{Dislocations due to this reason generally give no or very little pain.}
From what Cindy can tell, Jonathan is not in any pain from the dislocated hip.
They think the fracture above the knee is what's hurting him.
Thanks, Karen, I will forward you message to Cindy!
