First appointment Feb 26

Lily's pain kept progressing.  So on Feb. 26, I called the clinic to make an appointment for her.  The only doctor available was the pediatrician who comes to Shawano once a week.

We spent a whole 5 minutes in the office with him.  He looked at her and didn't know what to do, so he referred her to a podiatrist.    No x-rays to see if there was anything broken. The nurse called 3 different podiatrists, but none of them accepted our insurance.  We were sent home and I was told I had to find one on my own who would accept our insurance.

On our way home, we stopped at a shoe store and they measured her feet.  Her left one measured a size 9.  Her right one measured a size 6.5!!  They fitted her with some good ASICS, and showed her how she can adjust the strings to get a more loose fit for her right foot.

I was able to get Lily in with a podiatrist I was familiar with the following Tuesday.  No long waiting time.  Yay!
