Jackie Dean's Story
my son daughter has club feetMy son was born with very severe bilaterial clubfeet he was 2 wks old when he was first casted, that continued till he was 5 mths he had his first corrective surgery that went ok but still needed further casting he then had another operation at 2 yrs he is 6 yrs now and he is walking and running but he is not up with his peers physically it troubles him emensley that he is not as fast as the others, they do pick on him at school alot and run away from him he isn't high in self confidence anyway and all this sort of treatment adds to injury, my son gets a lot of cramp in his legs which can be very painful but beside all that he is a little boy that holds alot of empathy and understanding for all and they are great qualities in a person.
