Hard to take shoes on and off

[Guest guest]

Hello

Our Son got his shoes today after 9 weeks in casts. Here in Norway our

hospital is trying out the Ponseti method and our son is nr 3 in the study.

The shoes we got today looks for us homemade and we wonder if these shoes

with a bar is good enough. After reading about the Ponseti method several

places we are convinsed that this is a method that we are looking forward at

seeing results from.

I have been reading at this e-mail list that people are talking about

different shoes. If our shoes is not good enough, where can we get a hold of

these other shoes and how much will these costs?

If you please can look at our picture and let us know if the shoes are of

the right kind we would be most happy for replies.

And can anyone tell us the differences with the different types of shoes.

Pictures etc.

We are worried that the heal might slip out of the shoe, and therefore

creating the wrong holding of the feet.

Yours cindly
