the x-ray technicians could not believe how long his legs were for his age, they were amazed.
JoJo did wonderfully, didn't cry, stood still, he was AMAzing! I think it REALLY helped that I showed him the photos from last year and told him what was going to happen, that they were going to take "photos" of his legs and it wouldn't hurt and we were practicing the names of the doctors.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, here's the photo.
The one on the left is the very FIRST time he had an xray.
The one on the right is NOW.
the doctor said there is no need to bring him back for any more check up, his legs are STRAIGHT and will stay STRAIGHT.
there is an issue of him having flat feet which may cause problems later on, and he said if he starts complaining of pain alot, to bring him back in and they could give him arch supports.
Great news!!!!

That seems miraculous! I had no idea braces could change your bone structure that much!
Oh WOW! This gives me a little hope for Josh. Josh has now had his braces on for 9 months and we have seen little change. I sure hope they start to work soon. I'm so happy for JoJo!
