Guest guest Posted June 26, 2002 Report Share Posted June 26, 2002 , Good question.....I guess I feel very self conscious about them and don't want to be asked any questions because most don't even know I have a problem, even some family (not immediate)have no idea I even wear braces. I must wear them to walk. I have one hinged, one not. I have worn them for about 10 years. Curious, does anyone look/ask you questions....friends, family, or otherwise? Altho you have only worn them a short time perhaps in time you could let us know what happens. BTW, I think it's great that you wear shorts right from the start.....perhaps I should have......Thanks, Terry Little littlet@... From: tigerboy@... >Why not wear shorts? I'm not crazy about how my AFOs look either, but I do know they draw less attention to my legs than if I didn't wear them.< Challenges Met Together here at !
