Re: Precious Little Feet Quilt for Ponseti's 90th B-Day

[Guest guest]

Charity,

Thank you VERY much for your efforts in coordinating this. It's a

wonderful project.

One question, just to clarify, about the footprints.

Do you want prints of just the corrected feet? Or both, right and

left, from everyone, whether unilateral or not?

I can only imagine the amount of work you've done already to get this

going.. Many, many thanks, on behalf of all of us,

and Claire

Good question, what do you think?

It might be cute to have only corrected feet, then it wouldn't be necessary

to put bilateral or R/L unilateral??

Would any other unilateral parents like to comment?

Hi Charity. My name is Tina, I don't think we have met yet. My son

Ethan was born March 6, 2004 with bilateral clubfoot. I just wanted to

tell you that I think what you are doing is wonderful and we would

very much like to participate!!

Hi Charity-

Speaking as a mom with a unilateral left cf child...I think it would be

great to put both feet (if they'll both fit on one square). I think it is

neat how the corrected foot looks just like the foot that was non-cf. Heck

when I saw DR. P at Colburn's office he grabbed right foot (non-cf)

and said it really looks good. I had to inform him that it was the left foot

that was clubbed! I think unilateral cases speak alot for the Ponseti

Method because with casting alone you can get the cf foot to look just like

the normal foot. Just my two cents:)

M,

The squares will all be 8 x 8 and that's the biggest they can be!! Do you

think 's will fit?

Charity,

I agree that this is a wonderful idea. My only question would be how

big the quilt squares are going to be? For some of us with the " old

timers " , the size of the feet need to be considered. Jakob is wearing

around a size 13 now

Charity,

For some reason, I lean toward doing both feet, just for symmetry's

sake.

But I can see the logic either way..

Charity, god bless you! Thank you so much for organizing this!

About the prints - how big is each square? Might it be a possibility

to have left and right feet printed, side by side, onto the square?

In unilateral cases, it might be interesting to see the differences

(or lack thereof) between the corrected foot and non-clubfoot. In

any case, whatever everyone decides is okay with me!

I am very interested in being a part of this project. When do the

footprints need to be done and where will the money and prints need

to be sent?

Thanks

Dear Charity

Is the quilt limited to those children that have been treated

directly by Dr Ponseti?

I am keen to submit my son's footprint and hope I have not missed

the submission date.

I would appreciate if you could confirm the address and cost.
