I also posted on the a bit down thread but thought you might miss it...
Ahh Dingle - just wanted to let you know we have bought dd some clarks first step boots for winter thinking they will give her added support. SHe really rolls her ankles in when she is walking. We also bought her some trainers - soft and not so chunky trainers. The woman at the shoe store was brilliant.
When I asked about trainers she bought out two pairs - she looked at one and just said nope - too clompy - not good but these will be perfect ( soft cute pink trainers)
As I watched dd1 walking around a friend's garden - she was putting her feet down inside arch first - no ball to heel..... SO am fired up to speak to physio about splits or foot supports or something on Friday when we see her again.
So if I have no success - I might take you up on your offer of the boots - although they may be expensive to send and I would not want to put you out. Am also thinking if she is not referred by the physio to get the GP to refer her to a podiatrist......
any hints on what I should say to the physio?!?!? She seems reluctant to refer people for AFO's - the little girl I mentioned in my first post also sees the same physio and she was really reluctant to refer her too.
