Re: Heel cord lenghting and bone surgery

Thanks for posting this information on the WEB. My wife and I are in a similar position with our 5 year old son. We had a few questions for you... 1) How old is your daughter? 2) Why did they decide to perform BOTOX on one leg and the surgery on the other one? 3) Did they cut through the calf or go through the heel? 4) Are the muscles tightening again, does one method seem to have worked better? 5) When you say she was on "her feet right away, was that with a walking cast? 6) How long did she have her cast on for? 7) Is she going through physical therapy? or are you stretching with her at home? Thank you for taking the time to respond.. Being able to talk to someone helps ease the unknown. Tim
