This afternoon we had yet another refitting for Julia's brace for her left leg.......I think this will be her 7th brace or so since the vaccine injury three years ago....
Anyway, after getting out of work late (really??? how unusual....) I was able to get to the appt early! Julia was a TROOPER this time! Its the first time she actually just sat through the whole casting (well, on my lap) without moving and crying, etc.... She was casted and measured and the new brace should be in within the next three weeks! Good news, it will be a "short" brace, as opposed to the one that went up to her knee that she has had for the last year or so....AND.......NORMAL shoes will (should) fit over it! WOO HOO! Maybe my baby can become a shoe fanatic like her mom! Hopefully shoe shopping will be more fun this time! I would really LOVE for her to be able to wear sandles now and then, especially with summer coming.....
Anyway, I'm real happy with how the appt went.....NO TEARS or accidental cuts on her skin like last time!
