Delivery day! I was grumpy today, because Amy’s Little Brother took a small part of her wheelchair off. I ordered the part he took (and lost!) from Medline (the wheelchair company) but I’m hopeful it will turn up. (Ugh!) 3 year olds, am I right? Positives: With shipping it was Read more…
So, we managed to get into Hanger to see Cammie pretty quick, so that’s a blessing. So I was super happy to give Cammie the good news that Amy had not fractured. *high five* We talked about adjustments to the bow side, and to the gaping side. She said that Read more…
Well, hello Autumn! It’s one of my favorite times of year. The air is crisp and cool, it’s my birthday, school starts, the leaves change, and HALLOWEEN ! What’s not to like? Pain. That’s what. Every year around this time, her pain ticks up. I have no idea why. On Read more…
I think I can finally say… SUCCESS!!! It’s been a bit of a road with this now FOURTH incarnation of this brace, her first with a hinge. I got a call from Hanger, asking if we could move her appointment to 9/4, so the Regional Manager could join us for Read more…
I was so nervous. The whole way there, tears were threatening, or falling. Amy was mostly silent, sleeping. At one point she did ask is we were driving all the way to London to see Dr. Hoffinger. It brought much needed laughter. The radio was broken, so I was mostly Read more…
I just realized that this one brace has caused almost as many posts as braces. *sigh* So, here we are, back at Hanger. I think we need more brains in on this one. I decided to compare Amy’s old brace and her new brace side-by-side. I noticed that her new Read more…
I can’t believe I’m writing another post about this brace! Amy hasn’t really had any complaints about her brace. She has an odd complaint of pain, but nothing major. She’s been in her brace since Friday morning, and everything has been okay! Amy was playing in the water today, and Read more…
Guess whaaaaat? ? We’re back, and wearing the old brace. I am so over this. So, here we are. No pictures from today’s visit either. Cammie did a LOT of time consuming work adjusting Amy’s brace. I means that Amy had loads of time to play on, and kill, my Read more…
Here we are again… Good Lord this is making me crazy! Amy ended up back in her old brace again, the new one was hurting her too much. No pictures today though, it was a quickie! She ran up and down the hall, and her foot isn’t turning out at Read more…
Delivery day! Found out what the delay was. Apparently, the brace arrived on time, but Cammie took one look at it and knew we wouldn’t accept it. So she took the initiative to refuse it, and saved up the trip. Feels great to have someone who’s got my back. Anyways, Read more…
