That's great news. I think we all live in fear of relapse or fear that the feet

are not corrected properly, etc. Hearing good news sure takes the weight off!

Did Dr. P say why he wanted down to just 16 hours?

pictures of 's feet to see what Dr. Ponseti had to say before

we made the trip to Iowa. I have been on pins & needles waiting to

hear back from him - anyway, I talked to Joyce today & Dr. Ponseti

said that 's feet look well corrected but that it is safer to

abduct to 60 degrees (one of our concerns was that our shoes were only

at about a 35* angle). He said we should gradually move them out and

monitor how responds to the change. He also said

should be in the bar 16 hrs/day...we are currently doing 23 and will

probably continue to do 22-23 until we see his doctor at the end of

May.

You are probably the only parents who can understand how happy this

makes me!

Well I tried to reply once but got an error. I apologize if I post

twice! I spoke with Joyce and was so happy to hear 's feet

looked good that I didn't even question the hours. I think maybe

because he has been in the brace almost 3 months, but I thought it

normally was reduced more gradually than this? Maybe I will email

Joyce to be sure I understood correctly.
