The story

Eden was born with a congenital birth defect - her left thigh bone does not grow properly. This summer, she is undergoing a limb lengthening procedure at Sinai Hospital in Baltimore, MD through the Rubin Institute. It is an approx 6 month process. Chris and I are grateful for everyone's well wishes, and want to do our best to keep you all informed, so we decided to create this blog. It will also be a way for us to document this process and one day we will show it to Eden and she will know, she can conquer anything.

turning the fixator

this is a video of Eden turning the fixator by herself. It is pretty cool. She does it all on her own, if only it was not painful for her. The turning itself does not hurt, it is the results of the turning - the stretching of the muscles, etc that results in the pain.
