I wish i had a docter like him, my docter was like "Yep, he has legg perthes, come back in a year to check his progress."

I have it too, I am glad for you that you are able to do things you like. I know the problem of not being allowed to jump, to run, or even to do PE. It is strange, most people cannot see what it really is. I don't know how it was for you, but i raced across the territory when I was in group 4 with crutches, they didn't see what was there. But i know what you could have had, i am really glad for you you had somebody who really helped you with this. The best wishes

im 24 years old now. and im feeling your pain im very much admiring your courage and endurance and determination. im still suffering quite bad since my hip bone joint is now very flat and deformed the socket. these days my pain can stop me doing stuff such as work. but my specialist at the hospital has deterimed that i will be gettin a hip replacement. i honesty can not wait for this life changing event where i can make up for so much lost living and just feel like im not held back by anything.
