<t>Everyone keeps telling me to check with my therapists, specialists, doctor.<br/> <br/> Sadly, that isn't really possible for me. I know more already than any "professional" in town here (I'm stuck in mid-Saskatchewan).<br/> <br/> I have found a private PT (one of only 2 who work with Children) an...

How do "they" fix it?

My daughter has very poor (if any) supination. What might be done to correct this?

TIA!!

<t>Sorry folks, I haven't been here for a long time. My daughter is now 18 months old and has an ROBPI. We have been to a specialist 4 times but she has had no surgery to date.<br/> <br/> My specific concern/question is this:<br/> My daughter used to crawl. She was able to weight bare on her right a...

<r>Every once in a while I feel like I should be paying more attention to my dd's injury. <br/> <br/> I am a planner and a bit of a controller so it's really hard for me to leave this!! <E>:-D</E><br/> <br/> My dd is 16 months old and has not had surgery.<br/> <br/> Her right shoulder and elbow were...

<t>Thanks Francine for your reply. <br/> <br/> The difficulty I have is that Avery's PT doesn't understand her injury. She doesn't recognise even what I can see. She spends about 10 minutes every 6 weeks looking at Avery and saying how well she is doing (compared to some of her other kids who have s...

<t>Thanks. Avery is actually an early walker (11 months). She has been totally on her feet for nearly 4 months. <br/> <br/> Professionals here don't understand BPI so I am reluctant to take time to see someone else who will just brush me off as a panicky mom.<br/> <br/> Thanks. I don't really want t...

Please see the post entitled "Gait questions". I would LOVE some support/advise.
