Guest guest Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 My son is in the bar 18 hours a day. He started walking about a week and a half ago. I can' t believe that in the six hours a day he is allowed out of them he has learned to walk. I think if he didn't have clubfoot he would have been walking very early. It is hard for me too. I would like to be able to hold and cuddle him the way I did with my daughter but that stupid (necessary) bar gets in the way sometimes. I am grateful to the bar because I know it will correct his clubfoot but it is also a point of aggravation at times. I just have to keep looking to the future. It can sometimes be hard.
