Hi everyone!
Joined just to find good info for helping my daughter.
She was diagnosed qt birth however due to a lot of other medical issues and her size we were not able to do any of the braces to help. She wasn't big enough until she was 2 years old and by that point the braces wouldn't help. She has other skeletal issues also and also a form of primordial dwarfism.
When she turned 3 We had 8 hour surgery 2 separate times because of her size they were concerned with blood loss. 6 weeks apart and then 8 weeks in cast after last surgery. She will most likely need another surgery they think because her right leg is very tight and doesn't have motion. She's now 5.
I can't remember all the terms of what they did in surgery but her legs were out and up the side of her hip about an inch. The cut tendons and had to cut her bone in half, take put an inch, put plate there to hold together. Then they grafted the removed bone to create the hip socket. They had to scrape fat from the place a socket should be. Move the leg into the created socket and then pins in place. The leg ball started to show growth around 4 years of age and we had pins removed when she was 4.
Is this common with younger to still have multiple surgeries if this much is done?
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
They were cooked in Greece.
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!
Because she wanted to see the task manager.
Heard they've been doing some shady business.
but then I remembered it was ground this morning.
Edit: Thank you guys for the awards, they're much nicer than the cardboard sleeve I've been using and reassures me that my jokes aren't stale
Edit 2: I have already been made aware that Men In Black 3 has told a version of this joke before. If the joke is not new to you, please enjoy any of the single origin puns in the comments
They’re on standbi
A play on words.
My daughter, Chewbecca, not so much.
Pilot on me!!
Nothing, he was gladiator.
Or would that be too forward thinking?
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
What did 0 say to 8 ?
" Nice Belt "
So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
When I got home, they were still there.
I won't be doing that today!
