Re: Update on Maddie

[Guest guest]

Congrats Kim and go go Maddie!!! I remember when you joined and am

just so happy to hear that Maddie is doin so well! And it's not 'bad'

at all to be proud, I think that we all are so much more proud of our

special club footed kids and their accomplishments =) We remember

those lil feet and how they were at birth and then see them standing

and then taking their first steps and we are just so thankful and

happy and PROUD - way to go Maddie!!

Hi Kim.

It's great to hear such wonderful news. So I can assume the s are

working out well with Maddie. It is such a nice feeling to have the bad things

behind you and now can really enjoy your little one without all the added

stress. (Not that you didn't enjoy her before of course!) Before you know it,

she will be walking, which is a wonderful milestone with our clubfoot babies.

Keep up with new updates!

I have not posted in a while... work has been crazy and Ms. Madilyne has

been keeping us very occupied. Maddie turned 8 months old yesterday.....

She also started to really crawl yesterday!!! She was rocking for a while

and started pushing herself back wards, so I knew it was just a matter of

time.

I remember finding out about her club feet when I was pregnant and going

through all of the emotions. We have been through a lot! Bad experiences

with a Doctor... which led to many tear-filled sleepless nights... new

(wonderful) Doctor, three pairs of Markell shoes (3 or 4 bars... can not

remember), and now the shoes. Her little feet are so cute I

kiss her little bare toes every night before I put her shoes on. Now she is

mobile!!!!

And to make all of this a little better, there are two people that I work

with that have babies around the same age and Maddie was the first to crawl-

it is bad of me to be so proud? I just wanted to share a little news that

made me happy.

Thanks to all on this site that keep our hopes up! You have been very

helpful to me!

Kim,

is due for her check-up in March. I am going to try Dr. Frick here in

Charlotte. He is on Ponseti's list and Dr. Herzenberg told us to use him too.

I guess Dr. H and Dr. Frick have worked on several books together. I trust Dr.

H's opinion. I'll let everyone know the outcome in March.

Hi ~

Maddie is doing much better in the 's! Once I mastered putting them

on her feet, we were good to go. She does not complain about them at all.

Just a part of our nightly routine now. How are you guys doing? Are you

seeing a new doc in NC or are you still going to Herzenberg?
