sorry for the picture quality



we have considered quality of life, but we are torn in our decision by what we have researched
Ahhhhhhh, this is frogs legs! I vaguely remember reading about a kit that had this before and what they did I think was just consistently keep putting the legs in the correct position everytime the baby was upstanding or eating. There maybe some sort of brace for it but you might also be able to correct it yourself with time. Good luck with the little one. C.x.

This is just amazing - to think how impossible it looked to begin with and how utterly changed it can be ... just makes me want to sing and dance for joy
