Emma has been complaining about her foot hurting for a couple of weeks now. I took her yesterday to an orthopedic doctor thinking she might have a stress fracture. It's not broken. She has what's called Sever's Disease where the tendons are pulling away from the growth plate. It's somewhat common among children her age who are active in sports. The cure is to immobilize it for a month, so she got a boot. Just glad she didn't have to get a cast.
