Guest guest Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Evan has been in 8 casts and was in the current brace for 5 ½ months. He was 4 degrees before the brace (down from 49 degrees when we started this journey) and at this appointment he was at 3 degrees! His Dr. said he thinks that he is cured. It is the best news I have ever heard. He wants him to wear the brace for 6 months or until it stops fitting (it is already small). Steph – Evan also had a period of approx 6 months where he had no correction, then he improved over 10 degrees. Hang in there, Noelle is doing great:) Barb Mom to Evan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
