Carter saw his orthopedic surgeon today at Shriners. Marlee was happy to come along.
They like the chipmunk statues.
Carter was loving this chair, just his size.
He got some braces today for his feet, to help him be more stable and encourage him to stand and walk. His feet are flat and curve inward, which makes it harder for him to learn how to walk. Porter’s feet were the same way and he took awhile to grasp walking. They have these massive tennis shoes, that remind me of cabbage patch shoes, that the braces can fit in.
The braces are just white plastic w/ Velcro. They give him a arch and hold his ankle in the right position. He still wears his hip brace at night while he sleeps.
