Avery had cast #5 applied on March 13th. She was 11 degrees out of cast and 9 degrees in cast. She has been 9 degrees in cast for the last 3 casts. She started out at 39 degrees.

Her rotation is at 0 degrees and started at 20 degrees.

The Dr said that this is her last cast

She is being fitted for a brace in June. He will monitor her through the summer, but is confident that this will be it.

He said that the gane plan is to brace her and check her every 2-3 months while in her brace for this year. If she doesn't regress at all, he is going to remove the brace and see her every year.

I am a little nervous, but so very excited! Avery will actually get to swim for the first time ever this summer. I have already bought 2 swim suits for her.

Thank you everyone for the support for the last 15 months. I am sure that I will need more, but I wanted to share the good news.

Avery has only been in the water for baths. Never outside. Last summer we had a 1 day gap between casts 2-3, but that day it ended up being 70 degrees out. I had already bought a pool for her. So, we will just use it this summer

that's jaylin's and I deal, is if he gets a brace the end of June for the rest of summer then we will put up our pool. He is a little fish!!Before his casting he went swimming all time in preschool and I had him in lessons all the time. That was the the worst part of his cast, he couldn't be in the water. He was also the type of boy that all parents wanted lives baths and showers!!! But he understands that its very important what we are doing.Live, laugh, and loveJoyOn Apr 5, 2012, at 9:16 AM, Randi Nagel <mommyloveshertwins24@...> wrote:
