I am not even sure the long term goal they are seeing with this one! I think that while her feet are flatter, the opportunity will be taken to try to teach her to walk? I sometimes have a hard time getting realistic, straight answers from her specialists. One of the problems is her skin is sensitive and she is having small areas of breakdown. I learned later this is common and at her next appointment I will be asking about equally effective casting options which allow for "breathing" time. The casting has helped correct her foot position a little as well and she has improved so I don't want to give up just yet! Hopeful it sticks when she needs week off for healing. :-/ Keeping surgery and muscle relaxers at bay for now.
My dear friends held a charity yard sale this weekend for us and one of the things that sold was traded for 6 sessions of Hippotherapy!! I am very excited and grateful for this because the insurance claimed they would not cover this wonderful therapy until she is 3.
Here is a pic of Miss Sienna on a saddle at the yard sale this morning :-)
I am confident more Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy or getting her to the Family Hope Center will produce the best results! As well as maintaining her nutrition regimen which can be costly but has had great results! I am working on these things for her. Thank you for your continued support and for keeping her in your prayers. :-) She inspires me every day. ♥
