Re: Angel - Thank You!

I just put them all together. Then I forgot to put the pad on and had to

take one shoe off lol! But we're set and ready to go for tonight. I see

no reason to keep the old gold bar. So if anyone wants a 12 " bar it's up

for grabs (bent for bilateral).

OK, I see it now. It's not quite as bent as our bar. When I get the shoe

on it looks good enough though. So they bent it on both sides for you in

Iowa even though he's unilateral? What I don't like about that is, her non

CF isn't dorsiflexed. It's bent sideways at the ankle because that foot

isn't set at 70 degrees. It looks uncomfortable. Any comments about this

I'd welcome.

yes! Thank you for marking those. I was singing your praises a while ago

when I saw it was marked. Now I can see why Gia was so freaked out when

those clamps broke. They are pretty specific.

Thank you again. I even adjusted it exactly to her

shoulders. Whoohoo! Now to see if she likes it. (like she's going to

know any difference hehe!) She did carry it around for a while this

morning playing with it :~}
