question about shoes

August 7, 2003

hi to all,

i have a question about shoes. my daughter,mai,18 months old ,start to walk.

she has assymetry in length but also small and big foot.

the doctor said to let her walk for 3 months barefoot and then to buy a

shoe for the big foot ,and he will put support in the small one-for size and

height.

do any of you have problem with size beside the length?

thank you,tikva

Hi ,

We got Aidan's shoes last weekend and his Orthotist actually tightened the strap

as tight as he felt it could go then marked it for us with a marker so we'd know

how far. It was really far, honestly I didn't even have the hand strength to

pull it all the way my husband had to do it. Pull those laces as tight as you

can is what I was told. Good luck...

If you can I'd love for you to keep me posted on his progress with the shoes.

How is he handling the first day? Aidan cried all day (it was horrible).

Saturday he was a little better and Sunday I think he was kinda getting the hang

of it then he got really bad blisters and we had to go back to casts for two

weeks for the blisters to heal. One was the shoes fault and the other I'm

afraid was mommies.

We'll try again next weekend. Best of luck.
