Follow-up with orthopedic surgeon
The surgery for her right foot is scheduled for July 13, 2004. She will be in a splint until the surgery and then will be in a series of casts for 12 weeks after the surgery. The first cast will be from her upper thigh to her toes and heavily padded to protect the two pins that will be inserted in her foot. After two weeks, the cast will be removed and a thinner cast will be placed on her leg and foot under anesthesia as outpatient surgery. After three more weeks, the thinner cast will be removed and a shorter cast from just below her knee to her toes will be placed on her foot. The pins will be removed at this time.
