And I'm sure it won't be the last. Little Bit started complaining Monday that the top of her foot hurt although she couldn't really pinpoint when the pain started. So it was off to the pediatrician yesterday and off to the orthopedist today with the end result that she is in a walking cast for three weeks. The culprit is a possible stress fracture at the joint where her big toe joins her foot. I think the Dr. was being extra cautious but I'm glad. They gave us the option of a boot if (and that's a big if) she would wear it for three weeks. She and I both know she wouldn't so we did the cast instead. At least I know it's immobilized. Her first comp is the first weekend in December so it's cutting things close but I'd rather be sure she's fully healed and healthy before turning her loose on the tumbling passes.
