Clubfoot will not stop her from cycling..

This video is dedicated to all clubfoot parents for your motivational support and encouragement.

One request for this blog readers especially if you are one of clubfoot parents, IS NOT TO GIVE UP HOPE.

Don't be scared to ask your specialist (whoever it is).

Your right is to get the best & the right treatment for your child.

If you need to travel, or to spend some of your time, you are encouraged to do so by all means.

No, not necessarily you need to go to Bangkok as we did but make sure your specialist did the right thing.

Take this challenge as one of the greatest gift from our Creator, and with courage & prayers, He will assist us.

I'm here to listen & to share your guts & feelings.

I'm here to assist whatever I can.

But YOU need to decide your own journey.

YOU need to be strong and wise in deciding the best treatment for your child.

Believe me, One day when you look at your child, you'll be proud that you have assist her to be able to walk like any other children.

Remember - Clubfoot will change your life... as it changes mine..

Taniah kepada Ina sekeluarga. Berkat kesabaran dan kesungguhan, kaki Dania berjaya dipulihkan.
For us, we still have a long journey even though it has been 4 years since my son, wafiy had his first cast. Wafiy was diagnosed to have severe CTEV. In the beginning, wafiy underwent serial casting treatment based on the ponsetti method. since then, he had more than 25 times of casts, splint and 4 surgeries. Still, his left foot is not fully corrected until now. And the specialists suggest to perform another op this early december to fix his left foot. However, me and my husband are not keen for another op as it is the same op as the last surgery held in June (they claim the latest surgery is not successful). for us, if it failed, why should they do the same thing?. So we are thinking to get 2nd opinion or find another specialist for review. I'm glad to find your blog. I'll try email Dr. Amnuay regarding wafiy's condition. Thanks for sharing the experience and info. Hope it will be an inspiration to other parents and make them feel they are not alone and not to give up. Thanks.
