Our Grandson Decon

Ahhh sweety....I suspected CDH (Congenital Hip Dysplasia) when you wrote to me about the clicky hip thing, but thought and hoped...well, maybe it means he's chasing little girls (in Ozzie-speak).

Now I learn this. Well, in plaster pants he's almost as much a threat as his grandpa....watch out for the shrapnel, and don't under any circumstances let Mark (me Bonzer mate, a.k.a. Cap'n starkers) to feed Decon anything looking even vaguely like you know what. 

So much for my feeble attempt at humor and cheer for a worried Grandmother.

All will be well, and he'll be tooting with his Grandfather in no time at all.

Also, I spent my first year on this planet in plaster as well...Pes Equino-Varus. I was so pidgeon-toed I gave the birds a bad name.

My best thoughts are with you (as if I had to say), and prayers and above all, love. Hugs and kisses to the little tyke, as well. 

it will be alright. 

Prayers and thoughts are with you!

Thanks doc just reading what you wrote put a smile on the ol dile thanks bonzamate and also Doc Bianca my daughter is preganat again due sometime march

My Prayers are with you and your family:karma:

I pray for the well being of your family lady!

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I hope all works out...

I feel so bad whenever I read anything about children being in pain/discomfort or getting hurt.  I know the anxiety over having a child that needs medical attention for some ailment.  I hope everything turns out well for the little tike.  Keep your chin up dear.

Thank you everyone for your lovely comments and prayers, while it seems everything  may be ok, my daughter and son in law still may have to take Decon to Hobart or Melbourne Hospital we wont know till about 6 weeks if not sooner I guess it depends if the cast from the waist down  and down both legs  dont work the doctors at the Launceston Hospital has told them of the ups and downs and to just be prepared  , I told my daughter about the kindness from you folk and all of the best wishes, she and her partner have asked me to pass on their thank yous

My thoughts are there for you and yours Shaunna.  Things should never happen to children when they can happen to us old tough geezers instead.

many thanks angus, so true

I'm sure they'll have 'em fixed up in no time. Sux being in a body cast......poor boy

  lotsa love to you guys im so glad his dad will be there for the little one :karma:

An update Decon is home  from Hospital  and is in his body cast, now we play the wait and see game for 6 weeks and hope that this works well for him

Back home and just as cute and lovable as ever! 

Look at it this way...he's got his own 'do it yourself' limbo set!

He looks so much like his Grandpa!  

Thanks doc yes he  I wonder if he will teach his grandma to do  the limbo lol
