Guest guest Posted May 15, 2003 Report Share Posted May 15, 2003 Hi! We've made it here in Brazil and it was a big success. I asked for all mothers (Dr. 's patients) to do the foot print with a photo and a little message. She just loved it. So, I'd like to take part of this celebration. Will there be time enough? Wich would be my deadline? Regards from Brazil!

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2003 Report Share Posted May 15, 2003 Thank You so much for joining in! I would like to have at least most of the footprints by May 24th so that I can have at least most of them in place on the card. However I will not mail it out until probably May 30th....so if a few footprints cannot reach my by the 24th, I think by the 30th would be okay. As long as I am not swamped with them at the last minute because it will take some time to get the card together. > Hi! > > We've made it here in Brazil and it > was a big success.

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2003 Report Share Posted May 15, 2003 , I finally posted Veeti's footprints to you today. It should arrive by the 24th.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 Dr. P is not Noah,s doc,, But the doc that is his knows him very well. Will that be a problem.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 , You can do either both or just one if you wish. I am going to do both. Maybe you could include a short note with the Drs name also that treated and the date. I am not sure yet if I will cut them out or just glue them on. I guess it depends on how many people actually mail me the prints. I do need to get them soon, hopefully by the end of this week.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 No it is not going to be a problem! Whether your baby was treated personally by him or not, if it wasn't for him I am sure the outcome would have been very different. > Dr. P is not Noah,s doc,, But the doc that is his knows him very well.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 Dear I'm so pleased that everything is going so well for Connor. It is really encouraging to hear. My baby was diagnosed with bilateral clubfeet at the 20 week scan and I now have just 2 weeks to go before I am induced. We have arranged to begin treatment with Mr. De Kiewiet on June 9th in Sunderland if all goes well and there are no other problems for him/her. That is still my major worry at this point in time but not long to go now. I am sure you are heartily relieved to have your little chap with you. The wait does seem like a long one doesn't it? He certainly sounds like he's doing really well though. I was interested to hear that your Dr. is doing the tenotomy under local and not general. I know this is usual in the Ponsetti method, but I was under the impression it was still quite unusual in the U.K. - Mr. DeKiewiet for example talked of doing the tenotomy under general. Obviously I would be much happier if it was a local - I wonder if you have any feed back on this? Nice to see someone from the UK on this site - I have been reading it avidly since diagnosis and there has hardly been anyone contributing.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 Hi I too was diagnosed at ultrasound and it was a complete shock and we were both really upset. Once we pulled ourselves together things were ok, but yes it does seem like a long time coming. Connor was late and at 32 weeks they reckoned he was lying across and I may have to have a caesarian which I didn t want, then he turned on his own anyway within a few days.Then when he was late they were on about inducing which again I didn't want and he came on his own that night. Anyway once they did they checked him over and we realised that he was not only gorgeous (I know I am biased) but perfect and his little feet were lovely too, even though they were turned in. I wan't worried about them from that minute on. To see them so straight last week after only 3 weeks is wonderful. He only cried on the last cast as she was manipulating the foot slightly outwards but it was seconds and then he promptly fell asleep so I assume it was more of a discomfort. I don't think they use general in Bath. It has never been mentioned. I wouldn't like him to have general but equally the local is a bit scary too, I just hope it doesn't hurt, to much. Also as he is getting so big we have decided to move him out of his moses basket and into the cot before the DBB goes on. I am sure once your little one is in your arms all your worries will go. Good luck. Rach, Steve and Connor -- Re: Re: Card update and info.... Dear I'm so pleased that everything is going so well for Connor. It is really encouraging to hear.
