[quote name='Maklershed']Many thanks but Frosty is hookin it up. Thanks a lot for thinking of it though. And I'll still wish 84 good luck and hope for a speedy recovery.[/QUOTE]
Okie Dokie...Thanks!
[quote name='Eviltude']I'm sure he'll be ok, although I know it will suck. Best wishes though.
And if Mak doesn't want it, I'm in.

[quote name='tiredfornow']Hope that goes well for him! Why's he going under, if you don't mind me asking?[/QUOTE]
[quote name='Chika']Good luck to #84 for a speedy recovery. What's he having done? ACL? Boob job? Sex change?[/QUOTE]
Thanks all for the positive thoughts!
He has a condition called
Synovial Chondromatosis. Basically he has bone growing in the fluid between his hip and his leg. It's pretty rare for a person, and even more rare for a 10 year old. He is getting a total
open synovectomy in which they are going cut an 11 inch incision to dislocate his hip and take it all apart, remove the offending bone fragments and synovial fluid that are groing in the joint and resurface the leg bone that fits into the socket. Then reassemble it and hold it together with 3 screws. He's looking at 1 month bed rest, 1 month non-weight bearing on crutches and then he can begin Physical Therapy a month after that ("worst summer vacation ever" - Number84). We are getting this done at Childrens Hospital of Philadelphia, which I cannot say enough good things about. I am amazed at what they are doing down there and the care that they have given to Number84.
The boob job is later in the year for Mrs. Number83...if I can convince her.

Was that the Galleria store by chance? It was there when I visited about a week ago. I got the last one at York West though.[/QUOTE]
Target in Exton, PA. They have 2 Targets in the area (the other being Lionville that is literally 5 mins from the other)
