8 year old daughter had achilles repaired..
Our 8 year old daughter had her achilles repaired in April 2012, this is rare as she is by no means an athelete! she does have rheumatoid arthritis, we had the left bursa, which was inflamed, injected with steroid in March 2011.. after an MRI one year later revealed a high grade tear, we were left with no choice but to allow her surgeon to repair the tendon.. we are at week 11 post op now and she has started WB out of her moon boot.. watching your child go through so much pain makes you feel heart broken at times..
