One woman's journey into life as a we... and all that comes with it.
HELLO!
We are Alicia and Frank. In April, 2009 we welcomed our first baby into the world. Olivia came 1 week and 1 day late -- like her mom, always "fashionably late." The very next day a doctor felt and heard clicks when moving her legs. She was officially diagnosed with developmental dysplasia of the hip at 5 days old. Through several procedures, her hips have developed beautifully! This page is meant to keep family and friends updated on her progress and our lives. Enjoy!
You can read my very first post and a more detailed version of Olivia's story here. Posts about hip dysplasia are found here, and if you'd like to see all posts related to the spica cast, click here.
Ok, so I admit it, sometimes I'm all for using this blog as a platform to win free stuff. So, I'm entering a contest on the blog: Endurance Isn't Only Physical. Cross your fingers for me and check it out (after you uncross your fingers!).
