Guest guest Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 We are going and will be glad to talk to Dr. Jay if we get the opportunity. We went last year and Alaya was a model. They had her walk back and forth, Dr. Ponseti looked at her brace and the doctors asked us questions. There were several families and we were one of the last so we didn't get many questions. We are excited to be going again. We will post an update when we get back. I have mixed feelings about this trip. Alaya is 3 1/2. Although I would like to have her out of the brace I'm scared to death of relapse. Her feet are still turned very outward especially when she runs so I'm not sure what he will do.
