Guest guest Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 , I'm going to have a half sole of good rubbery grippy stuff adhered to the soles on Darbi's. I just haven't taken them in to have it done yet. They said they'd have to keep them for a couple of days so I have to take them back in when they've got a spot for them. I think that will help a lot.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 , I'd be interested in those pics too, if you don't mind. The toe pointing is an issue with us, so anything that might help a little...

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 Hi this is the one who started this whole thing. I would love to see a picture as well. Maybe this would give me a better idea of where to start. I have no ortho dept. in this small town where i live so I am pretty much on my own. After I see your picture maybe that will get me brainstorming as to what I can do to get this child mobile with her P/Mbrace. Thanks for sharing, Wold wrote: Sure, just send me an email at alicia.wold@... I will send you a picture. I know how to copy and paste really well!

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 , You can't post pictures on this list, but you can on the CFPics list. ARe you subbed? If you are, go and change it to individual emails and then just send an email to the list and attach or embed your picture into the email. You can't see the pictures others send if you read on the website, they don't archive attachments anymore (they did when we first started that list though!) so you have to be on individual email there. I would love to have those pictures, I'm getting quite the library of photos on my puter about clubfoot and they'd also be a great addition to the Ponseti/ folder in the photo library at CFPics too. So yes, please send them on. just send them to the CFPics list if you can and I'll get them that way.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 I'm taking them to a shoe repair shop. Gonna cost me $20 but I think it'll be worth it.
