First of all hooray for you and your child this is an emotional and physical roller coaster that your family will be on for months ahead. Everyday you must remind yourself and your child it will all be worth it in the end. For us we look forward to being able to go to the zoo and let Weston walk the whole way. Weston gets very excited when we tell him he will be able to run fast like his friends. I also look forward to him not having to crawl on his hands and knees after any family excursion because his feet hurt to bad to walk… Now during this process if not already your child may ask Why me? Or why did god give me clubfeet? I hate this question. I dread the emotion that comes along with it even worse. It really pulls at my heartstrings and I get teary eyed. I just tell Weston that god gave him such a big heart that he could not finish his feet but that he made doctors smart so they could finish them for him. Some kids are sensitive and need to have answers like Weston and some are so laid back and just go with the flow. Never less, I am sure there will be some questioning and some emotion. There is really no way to prepare you for it.
Oh, before we get too far every company or item of importance that I mention will be listed at the end. So no need to take your own notes. Ha-ha. J Enough said lets get to the knitty gritty.
