Hello!

If you found this page before you discovered the rest of Six-feet.com, then let me
introduce you a little to what you are about to see on this clubfoot photos - images page.

My three sons were all born with bilateral clubfoot, or clubfeet.   Treated properly,
clubfoot is quickly cured and easily over come.  By "quickly" I mean in less than six
weeks in most cases.  It is rare for clubfoot to require more than nine weeks of
serial
casting to be corrected completely if the parent is using the Ponseti Method of treatment.

Clubfoot should cause no handicap to the child or the family...which is why I constantly
post photos of our family and our six-feet on the site to demonstrate that point.   The
clubfoot related photos and images you find on this site show my boys in action, and
show that the Ponseti Method has given them their feet, and our family their freedom to
enjoy life!

near St. Augustine, FL.   

Happily, there are no
clubfeet in this photo!  They
were all taken away by Dr.
Ponseti and the Ponseti
Method.

Micanopy,

beach.

(Left) After 4 years in the Mitchell Foot
Abduction Brace, Everett's feet look
perfectly normal.

Everett manages all his normal
activities wearing his clubfoot brace.
At age 18 months,
Garrison's feet have
excellent function and
look as if no birth defect
ever existed.  (The red
spots are ant bites)    
Everett is so small we
thought if we planted him in
the ground and sprinkled
him with Miracle Grow he
might get bigger.
Damn the bad luck.  We spent four years getting Everett's
crooked clubfeet straightened out just to have him cut his
finger off a month after he finished wearing his FAB.

Granny had come to visit so we gave her the boy's bed to sleep
in and put the boys in the living room on a reclining lawn chair.  
The next morning, horsing around with it, the boys accidentally
folded  Everett's finger in the lawn chair, slicing it off through the
bone, down to a small strip of skin.   

A dozen stitches and about seven weeks later he was healed up.
His finger remains a little crooked but at least he still has it!
