Nope.

She was born with an offset knee that angled inward a little. This causes her leg on her right side to cave inward. It also basically destroys all the cartilage in that knee and throws her entire right side out of alignment, which cases an entirely different set of problems. That leg is now over 20 degrees inward and HAS to be fixed. We are looking forward to it so she can stand straight and more than likely end the problems in the hip cased by this.

It'll be tough for a bit but she'll get through it.
