Jarred and his family searched for years to find the care Jarred needed for his badly curved leg, the result of Blounts Disease. He had stopped playing sports and limited his walking due to pain and a severe limp. Dr. Eric Gordon of Shriners Hospital placed a fixator on Jarred's leg that would remain for five months, slowly straightening his leg. After many months of treatment and physical therapy, Jarred left St. Louis with a huge smile on his face, life-long friends who encouraged him every step of the way ... on two strong, straight legs.
