Red-ee

Tison was sick last month when he was scheduled for his second surgery. He will have this surgery on Thursday. He is ready (red-ee) for this next step. He likes the word ready--but he pronounces it red-ee. This was one of the first words he learned. We would ask him, "Are you ready?" He would say, "Red-ee". Now, he better be ready for this surgery.

This is an important process for him. He will have his left foot freed from the contractures. The end result is to have the foot lay flat in a normal position. It will mean a lot of new function for him once he is recovered. He has been walking on the side of his foot, since the time of the injury. I can only imagine, how Tison will feel when he realizes the improvement he will have following his recovery from this surgery. I am sure he is more than red-ee for that.
