Hi all
Just thought i would post a few things about me and my children, I
am an avid reader of this message board as i have congenital
dislocation and so do both of my children. I know how the children
feel as i can still remember my experiences and i also know how a
mother feels. I had my first operation at the age of 5 and 4 more
operations until i was 21. My problems werent spotted until i was 4,
hence all the problems. Luckily my children were both scanned as i
have a history, and both of my boys have it. They were both splinted
from 6 weeks and my youngest has just had his splint off. I'm going
to put some pics in the gallery so you can all see him with his
splint. This disease is quite a horrible one and i believe all
children should be scanned for it regardless of whether the mother or
father has a history. To put it in perspective though my friends son
has just been diagnosed with cf so thank god our children can be
cured.
