A special custom design for one of my very special clients. Bright colors just in time for spring. I do love the look on the faces of the families I work with when they see their new braces.

I have great news! I am in the process of getting some fantastic, state of the art, custom made, carbon fibre leg orthotics
.
I had a meeting today with an ortho-prosthetist and she is going to take plaster cast moulds of my legs next week and 3 weeks after that, I should have some purpose built leg braces that will make these movements easier and undoubtedly help me move from the parallel bars to the real world where I will be able to use the wheelchair less and begin standing up and walking as much as I can. .
.
My progress is moving at a speed I’m very happy with, as you can see I’m moving much more fluidly and by the time the leg braces arrive I’ll be wanting to run! .
.
I want to say an ENORMOUS THANK YOU to everyone that shared or donated to my GoFundMe, you guys have helped make this possible. The love and support is amazing. . ❤️
.
I will walk again! .

SOSORT is over, but learning about conservative treatments for scoliosis is not.
.
Sanja @curvyspineclinic took a shot at fitting braces, from cutting with a handheld saw as well as with 3 in 1 manual cutter, grinding, buffering, adding and removing straps, hammering, modifying braces with a torch, and, finally finishing.
.
It is definitely not easy to do all this manual work even though the theory is there!
.
Shout out to all the wonderful orthotists dedicated to treatment of people living with scoliosis.
