Re: [Spinalcordinjury] Need medical sites

Hi Don,
 
I bookmarked the site and will do a search a little later. AFO is Ankle-Foot-Orthotic. It is a brace for the lower leg that helps with "drop foot." I can't lift my left foot when I walk and will trip if I do not use a brace. I am currently wearing high tops which prevents my foot from falling completely, but I still have to walk very slow to keep from tripping and falling.

Hi Candle
 
I'm not sure what an AFO is but if it's something medical you can try www.wisdomking.com  I purches som of my supplies from them, there prices are reasonable.
