Guest guest Posted February 6, 2000 Report Share Posted February 6, 2000 ee, is an angel! And you are definitely in the right direction! Where are you from? We're from Florida and are at the Mc House. We also took the Angel Flights out here. That is a great group of people. The pilots are super! And Dr. Ponseti is the greatest! We're so glad to have you on this list. I joined about a week or so ago, and everyone has been so wonderful. Let us know how your plans are working out.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2000 Report Share Posted February 6, 2000 ee, Glad to have you here! My daughter Annika was seen by Dr. Ponseti when she was just a bit over one month old. We live in California and stayed in Iowa for 3 weeks during her treatment. I am also 'farm bred & raised' in Eastern South Dakota. ACK! Dairy farming, now that's a tiring job, isn't it? Welcome to our group. For those of you that I told about Dawn & family coming next Thurs to see Dr. P, they do not plan on staying in any hotel or the RMD house either. They plan on driving up Wed night after work and taking turns sleeping on the way. Then their appt is a 9 am. Then they plan on leaving right after so they can make it back for work on Friday. It will be a tough trip for them. I know it may not be possible to greet them, but if you get a chance that would be great.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2000 Report Share Posted February 6, 2000 Hello ee and , Welcome ~ I viewed your pictures, your son is adorable. Are his eyes hazle or light brown? I hope everything goes well with your visit to Iowa. Ivy's foot looked simular to 's before we saw Dr Ponseti, but I don't know about non surgery correction at 21 months. Have you thought about forwarding the pictures of 's foot to Dr. Ponseti. We did, and I think it helps Dr. Ponseti know what to exspect. He will respond. Welcome again, and keep us updated. Sara With Ivy 8/17/99 Introduction << File: ATT00001.html >> Dear Friends, invited me to join your loop, thank you ! I am in the process of attempting to get an appointment with Dr. P, and to arrange my travel through the Angel Flights and stay at the Mc house. There is so much to organize! My son is currently 21 months old, he is my first and only child. He was born with both feet moderately to severely clubbed and began casting at age 4 days. He wore casts until he was 7 months old, then went into AFO braces which he still wears today (in his third pair) and he has been attending physical therapy since he was 7 months old. We go twice a week. It seems his feet stopped progressing towards good recovery at around age 7 months. Since then it's been a battle to hold on to the improvement we have; after reading Dr. P's pages on Virtual Hospital, I know now this is not normal! Of further concern to us is that in the past two weeks or so, has begun to show pain and discomfort in his legs and feet, thus I am in a hurry to see Dr. P, maybe we can un-do the damage, God I hope so. I have made a folder and posted two pictures of for you to see if you would like. The photo of his feet was taken in July of 1999, but the feet still look like that today. I look foward to getting to know you all. Joy, I read you all farm! What to you grow? I grew up on family farms and worked my way through college and early adulthood milking cows on dairy farms. We live now on 7 acres, we just moved here, it's all still baren, no garden, no barn, no animals yet but my dogs, but I hope for small livestock to move in this summer. Thanks everybody! ee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2000 Report Share Posted February 7, 2000 Thanks Ivy, I think he is pretty adorable, myself! His eyes are a green/gray/hazle mix. I gave him his first hair cut last week, he looks so grown up now! s. Introduction > > << File: ATT00001.html >> > > Dear Friends, > > invited me to join your loop, thank you !

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2000 Report Share Posted February 7, 2000 <<< I am in a hurry to see Dr. P, maybe we can un-do the damage, God I hope so. >>> Welcome, ee and ! I also don't know how successful Ponseti's method would be starting at 21 months, but I sure would give it a try if you can! My daughter Rose started treatment with Dr. Ponseti when she was six months old, and we have been very impressed with the results. Rose is now 1 year old as of last week, and she has been taking one to two steps on her own the last couple of days! I hope things work out for ! I also checked out your pics, and he is so adorable!  <<< Joy, I read you all farm! What to you grow? I grew up on family farms and worked my way through college and early adulthood milking cows on dairy farms. We live now on 7 acres, we just moved here, it's all still baren, no garden, no barn, no animals yet but my dogs, but I hope for small livestock to move in this summer. >>> ee, yes, we do farm! My husband and his brother do the work now that I get to stay at home with Rose! Rose and I go visit every once in awhile. I really miss going out everyday, but I just get in the way when I'm out there because they have such a good system going! My husband Neil milks about 45 cows right now, and his dad has about 20 beef that Neil has to take care of. Neil hates the beef because he has to do so much fencework with them! I read that you live in Oklahoma! Do you live anywhere near Tulsa or Catoosa? We go down there in December to get pecans from a friend that Neil has and to visit my aunt and some other friends. Neil went to Spartan for a year and a half. Well, I hope all works out well for you and ! Welcome to the list!

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2000 Report Share Posted February 7, 2000 Oops, my name is Sara and my daughters name is Ivy. Are you from the McAlester area? My husband's family is from Krebs. Eastern OK is pretty. I don't think many realize what a beautiful state it is. Sara Re: Introduction Thanks Ivy, I think he is pretty adorable, myself! His eyes are a green/gray/hazle mix.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2000 Report Share Posted February 8, 2000 <<< You will be running after Rose before you know it. How wonderful, first steps are exciting>>> Rose is having a setback with the walking! She 'falls' to the ground and flops around like a fish! She thinks she's hilarious, and of course, we can't help but laugh!! , I remember the warning you gave me about what they can do in those braces! Yikes! That was cool that Jakob was trying to put the brace on! What a cutie! Joy http://community.webtv.net/joybelle15/ROSESCLUBFOOTPAGE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
