Re: Everyone who wants to be added to " 3

Hi ,

Please add us to the list also!

Remington and Gilles Watts, proud parents to Grace Jane

Marie Watts born July 21,2004 with right unilateral clubfoot. Treated

sucessfully with the Ponseti method by an amazing doctor - Dr.

Pirani, in Vancouver Canada. Many years ago, he used to preform

surgery to treat clubfoot (which unfortunatly is the standard with

non-Ponseti trained doctors) and now apologizes to his patients he

operated on for not knowing about the Ponseti method in time to treat

them.
