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…
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 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…
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…
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…
Guess we won’t be getting Amy’s brace tomorrow after all. ? There’s been a delay. TWO MORE WEEKS?! Ugh!!! New brace delivery date is Aug. 9th. Hopefully we won’t have any issues adjusting.
Hoffinger called today. Unsurprisingly, he’s not okay with Amy’s brace. So, back to the old one for now. On the positive side, Cammie has already called and discussed things with Hanger. We will have our new one in 2 weeks, Jul. 31st. Just in time for school! Thank goodness!
Okay! Today was the day! Brace Delivery! (FINALLY!) I mean it’s been a month since we originally molded. Yikes! Let’s do this! This brace is really different, not only because it has a hinge, but because it has 3 pieces. The AFO, the front shell, and also a boot (with Read more…
So, life has been a little crazy lately. We moved into a new home, and it is a bi-level home with stairs. (STAIRS!) That was a little scary for me, but Amy seems to have taken to it quite well. A couple days after Amy had her mold taken for Read more…
First off, GOOD news to share! Any is inexplicably herself again! She hasn’t used her wheelchair in nearly a week, and it going back to the garage! In the mornings, she gets up, gets braced, and goes on with her life. I’m hoping that tomorrow we can move her bed Read more…
