forum and whilst on

there I have come across a mum several times with a

daughter who started the Ponseti method at the age of

6 after several surgeries (not sure exactly which

surgeries she had).

Anyhow things went really well for her daughter and

she said she was happy for me to post up here the web

address for her daughters site and her email address

in case she could be of help to any parents of older

children. The website is

http://hometown.aol.co.uk/debsimp/index.html and the

Mum's name is Debs.

I'm happy to also forward on her email address but

wasn't sure if it was the best idea to but it out on

the web. She can also be contacted via the uk forum

which is www.clubfot.co.uk where she is registered

under 'gerogi33' to send a mail to her you will need

to join but then you can use the members mail to

contact her. It may help if you metion you found her

details here or she may wonder why people keep

contacting her.

Hope this is of some help to someone

Kathy
