Shoes Too Big

regarding his sandals as Dr. Ponseti has classified our daughter

to measure her feet so he can make shoes and she is done with the

casting process. So our Dr. tried to put her in reverse last shoes

in the interim but they were just tooooo big. Even the 0000 size.

Has anyone dealt with this and if so, what did you do?

's feet looked like Devlin's after three castings. Her feet were so severe

that her right one was turned up so the bottom of her foot was looking up at her

bucket and the left was completely sideways. Both are heavily creased across

the bottom of the foot and each has another heavy crease somewhere. One on the

heel and one on the side of her foot. Amusingly, she sticks out her toe like it

appears Devlin does.

I don't have any pictures of her feet as she was in the NICU when casting

started.

Re: Shoes Too Big

Sorry, I don't have any advice for you. Devlin just got new shoes

today because hers were too big and her heel was slipping up in them,

but she fit into the 000 size. Too big is a pain in the butt because

you end up over-tightening them and causing discomfort w/out the

desired effect. Hopefully you can find a solution...

I was wondering if you had any pictures of your daughter's feet. Dr.

Ponseti answered my email and said that he thought Devlin had

atypical based on my description of her feet. I was wondering if

your daughter's looked the same. Pictures of Devlin's feet are at

www.personal.psu.edu/rlg187/clubfoot/ . Do they look like your

daughter's?

Thanks!
