Ruby's legs

[emma_in_dream]

Ruby got her orthotics yesterday and I can already see the difference in the way she stands.

I hope these little shoe inserts will be enough and she won't need leg braces. I tried to see the upside of braces by thinking she would be like Miles Vorkosigan but this just made me freak out because Miles is crazy! Crazy! (Lovable but crazy!).

Biffling by on network and wanted to say: my mother didn't put me in a brace because she didn't think it would look right. 35 years later my right ankle and knee are still a lot crappier than they needed to be. Thanks for doing right by your kid.

Well, she'll get a leg brace if she needs one. Better she get one before other kids are old enough to notice/judge. Don't think the 2 year old crowd judge too much.

I am sorry to hear about your knee and ankle.
