Guest guest Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 I just found this regarding Troy Aikman, his clubfoot was only diagnosed at 8 months old so must have been quite mild... >> http://www.xprss.com/clubfoot/principals_x3.asp: Troy Aikman, Dallas Cowboys Quarterback and two-time Super Bowl champion. " I was born Nov. 21, 1966...During my first year, my parents found it difficult to put on my shoes. They were not worried at first. Soon, however, they started to wonder why my legs slightly bowed below my knees and my toes curled under my feet. They took me to Dr. Bill McColl, ... who told my parents I had a mild form of club foot. Dr. McColl put casts on my feet when I was 8 months old. Every 2 weeks the casts were changed. I wore those casts until a month after my first birthday, & I even learned to walk wearing them. After the casts came off, I wore special shoes until I turned 3 years old ... Slowly my feet grew normally. " ___________________________________________________________ How much free photo storage do you get? Store your holiday snaps for FREE with Yahoo!
