Jimmy update: Saw orthopedic surgeon today. He agreed to do a tendon release on both feet. Will also reset big toe on at least right foot as tendon alone will probably not resolve issue long term. Most likely will pin the toe and cast for a couple of months to ensure good healing. Goal is to allow more comfortable standing and 200 feet walking in assisted stander. Wont be able to bend big toe afterwards so there goes his ballet career but should allow more stability in supporting weight. Surgery in 2 to 3 months. May release other toes at time of surgery will assess after releasing big toes and seeing how rest if foot lines up while in the OR. Thanks for your continued prayers.
