update on Madison

[Guest guest]

HI everyone! Just wanted to give y'all an update. We went to see her

ortho today in San and he said she looks great. We started

weaning her out of her brace by four hours a week until just nights

for one month, she has been brace free for two weeks now. He even

said we can discontinue PT. We go back in July for another followup,

I'll be sure to post then. (For new members: she wore a series of 6

pop jackets, and 3 TLSO's-one precast, two post cast over a 25 month

period of time) She now measures COBB 0 and RVAD 0.

Hope this gives all of you some hope and a light at the end of the

tunnel. PLease feel free to e-mail me with any questions and/or check

out her story at: http://www.infantilescoliosis.org/madisons_story.htm

Best wishes to you all,

Jen and Madison
