Perthes Pals

Crab Walkin

when i wasn't allowed to walk, i would crab walk or roll around the house.  i started playing crab soccer in my living room.  now i am allowed to walk but i still like crab soccer!  i also learned how to edit videos.  this is something fun to do when u can't run around and play outside.  here's one of my videos:

This is Jack!

Hi! My name is Jack. I'm 9 and live in Rhode Island (USA). I have had perthes disease for about 2 years. I've been in traction and a itchy, hot, annoying body cast after surgery. I've also been on crutches sometimes and in a wheelchair.  I've been out of the body cast for about 2 months now. I can now run around and play some baseball and basketball out in the yard, and chase my annoying sister aMaNdA.  Some of my favorite websites are on the blog my mom made, on the left side under Jack's Favorites - firecrackerflyers.typepad.com/jackinator
