Dennis Brown Bar Brace for Club Feet

Here are some photos of Sophie Wei in her Dennis Brown Bar Brace. She will be wearing this brace at night time for two to four more years. This continues her therapy for her club feet.

Sophie Wei is doing pretty good with wearing it at night. She happily puts them on and moves around while we ready stories before bed. We can hear her bar hitting the crib through out the night but as of now it does not seem to make her fuss that much any more, only when she is not feeling well or very tiered.

Selfishly it is hard to snuggle with he while it is on but we have figured out how to do it side ways and the bar hurts my legs while she is moving around BUT we will do any thing to make sure she is receiving the care she needs to help her feet........
Since Sophie Wei wore this for so many hours (5pm until she awoke in the moring) while living in Chengdu, she is an old pro.

I bet she will be able to snow board :O)

Look at your precious Sophie- smiling in every photo! What a happy, joyous, very beautiful child!

As for the blog design, I did it myself using Shabby Princess scrapbooking elements, Photoshop, and a lot of HTML research. I do know of a couple people who design blogs- let me know if you are interested. :)

So glad Sophie is doing so well with your love and care!

Hugs, Shana :)
