Finally emailed Dr Dobbs
About our follow up. Last summer, Dr Dobbs had said that odds were good E would not need revision surgery, but if he would need it, it would need to happen before he turned 3. Well, that's October, so I sent Dr Dobbs an email with pictures of E's foot fully flexed and video of him walking and standing. He's ordering us some x-rays, but he said things look good and he does not think E will need follow up surgery. YAY! Now we just need to figure out when he can come out of the brace at nap and nighttime. That's going to be our holdup for potty training overnight (life goes on, even with bracing, right?). Oh, and I totally recommend Oh Crap! Potty Training by Jamie Glowaki. She's a genius.

Hi Amy,
ReplyDeleteI came across your blog preparing for a lecture that I am giving to physical therapists in North Carolina. It is so cool that you have chronicled your journey.
Feel COMPLETELY comfortable saying no to me, but I would love to have some more pictures of kiddos with CVT, walking and moving. Or, even video if you have some.
The talk is on Friday, so, if you would be willing to do this, I would need things sort of soon. The benefit is educating a lot of PTs and I would, of course, be happy to give you my presentation should you desire it.
My email is gosselind@wssu.edu. Being a mommy, I know that getting an email like this from a stranger might seem odd, so, if you have any doubts, here is the link to my bio on our faculty website: http://www.wssu.edu/school-health-sciences/departments/physical-therapy/faculty-and-staff.aspx
Thanks for your consideration!!!
