We returned to Dr. Capehart and I was determined today to make this get better. To me it looks as if Megyn's left foot is turning in again. "I CAN'T DO THIS AGAIN" I tell myself and others. I can only imagine how Megyn feels. She cries so much when we stretch her little feet and I know it is because it hurts her.
I feel that I am Megyn's voice and I need to stop this and figure out what to do for her. So ... Craig and I decided that we need to see if we can do braces for Megyn instead of re-casting.
Dr. Capehart agreed to try braces and Megyn was casted for AFO's ... (Ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs) are orthoses or braces, usually plastic, encompassing the ankle joint and all or part of the foot. AFOs are externally applied, and are intended to control position and motion of the ankle, compensate for weakness, or correct deformities.[1] They control the ankle directly, and can be designed to control the knee joint indirectly as well).
We should get these in about a week to a week and a half. They will be so cute ... we got to choose designs for them and the colors we wanted. I am excited to see if this works ... if it doesn't work we will do surgery next month. So please pray that on October 18th we see a difference and will not need surgery.
HERE IS WHAT THE AFO's WILL LOOK LIKE
