Day 36

Showing off by standing with knee immobilizers and ONE walking stick!!
And whose flat feet are those?? Could our huge obstacle of plantarflexion (toes pointed) now become an issue of dorsiflexion (beyond flat foot, over extended beyond the ankle)? Apparently this is signature for kids with diplegia but usually after heel cord surgery!! Did you read that? Her body just may be doing what is typical of someone with diplegia who HAD surgery!! She has had no surgery! Her brain made a switch or something! So time to start working out those calf muscles (which she currently has nearly none). So 36 days of taking minerals and has similar results to what one would hope surgery would achieve. Amazing!!!
