Welcome

This site is not just for those who have children with Cerebral Palsy but those who have, know, or who are disabled people. This sites intention is to help those who dont know, and for those who do to help others. I want this page to be a ongoing learning experience where we can share our experience and help eachother. As a special mom its hard not knowing and not having people to relate to. I hope this will provide comfort somewhere to as many people as possible. Please share and comment as much as you would like!

Hatchback Shoes

I cannot fit shoes on my child for the life of me! Not that he needs shoes because he doesnt walk, but its nice to feel normal you know? Plus recently Kale has taken a liking for standing(of course with our assistance holding him up), so our Physio Lynn has given us some AFO's (Ankle Foot Orthosis).

Finding a shoe for Kale before these contraptions proved to be very challenging not only because of his fat littlle feet, but because he curled his toes when you try to put them in anything! Then I discovered Hatchbacks!!

Not only do the look so cute they bend in the center to help you put them on, the tongue on them comes all the way down to help ensure there toes go to the tip of the shoe with ease! So these shoes are not only stylish they are easy to use and specialy designed for AFO's!!
