Guest guest Posted April 10, 2006 Report Posted April 10, 2006 My daughter is 16 months old and has spina bifida and unilateral club foot. She has been seen by Dr. Dobbs she has been treated with casts and brace. She outgrew her first brace and since she got her second one, she has been in and out of it and casts because she keeps getting blisters on her heels. I am very frustrated and almost ready to consider surgery to correct her foot. She is ready to start walking (a really big deal for kids with spina bifida) and I hate for anything to slow her down. Any thoughts? Can the brace be used while she has blisters? Should I consider having her switched to the Dennis Brown shoe with the cut out heel? TIA Debbie and Lilly Quote
