Kelli-

I'm sure it's fine! We painted Dane's helmet blue. We never had

any trouble with it matching.

It's nice to have a theme or to decorate it so that it doesn't look

as sterile.

If we had the option for a design, I probably would have chosen that

so that we didn't have to be bothered with decorating it.

Kelli,

No, It's not hard to keep the outside clean! I clean it the same way

I clean the inside, with rubbing alcohol. It is so much fun

decorating! I can't wait to do 's Halloween band!!

Kelli:

You just had Luke casted Friday, so I am pretty sure that you could

call & have them change the pattern to leave it white. The outside

of the band is pretty easy to keep white, you simply wipe the outside

of the band off with a damp cloth to get it clean if it gets dirty

and it easily cleans off.

If you think you do want to change it to white, then call your

orthotist first thing Monday morning to ask if it can be changed. I

bet they still can!
