Re: Progression of Grant's feet

[Guest guest]

Joy-

Grant is such a cute little boy-or should I say big boy. He looks

long in the pictures. I gotta say-his feet have made some amazing

progress. I can see why you would want to go to Dr P for an opinion

and some treatment-but the doctor who has taken care of Grant so far

seems to me to have done a good job. Those little tootsies are soo

cute. Good luck with the trip and I hope Rose gets a positive report!

Thanks for sharing the pictures, he really is beautiful.

Take care,

Joy, Grant is adorable! I have to say, Grant's left foot reminds me of how

Kai's foot looked at birth. I wish I had clear photos from that time! Give you

precious boy a kiss from us

Progression of Grant's feet

This is a yahoo photo album of Grant's feet. He is on his fifth set of casts.

Grant has more than just clubfeet affecting his legs, so he has had some short

casts.

Joy,

Thanks for sharing the pictures of Grant's castings/feet and Rose's

feet! Grant sure is growing fast! He is so sweet! And that

picture of Rose holding him is really adorable! Have you been able

to get a picture of all 4 together yet? I can't even get a pic of

my 3 lately!

I will be curious to hear what Dr. P recommends for Grant's

treatment taking his knee issues into account. I was wondering if

maybe there was a way to incorporate a brace that would hold the

bottom of the foot (casted part) aligned with the rest of the leg

with some kind of bars and thigh strap.....so you could take it off

to exercise his knees, but put it back on to hold the ankle and foot

in the right position when you weren't working on the knees. Or

maybe a type of KAFO that would fit over the cast? I'm thinking of

the contraption that my brother wore as a child to work on his " duck

feet " where he wore brown orthotic shoes with thigh high jointed

bars that came up his legs to tie the feet into the upper thigh.

Anyway, we're all here for you whenever you need us!
