Tippy Toe Saga Continues

Back in March JK started physical therapy for his toe walking. We've seen some improvements since then. He can now pedal a bike, something he could not do before. He can squat down and keep his feet flat on the floor. He can go up the stairs with his left foot flat but tippy toed on his right. He consistently stands flat footed instead of doing a tippy toe dance. But that's about as far as we've gotten. We went back to the children's orthopedist and were told he needs to be cast this coming fall. He'll spend 4 weeks in walking casts that resemble ski boots. We'll go in once a week to have them removed and recast. After the casts he'll wear braces to keep the correction in place and hopefully.....HOPEFULLY, he'll finally walk normally! I'll have to start thinking about a Halloween costume centered around his casts!
