My child needs replacement Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO's)! They've been in them all their life and has had many from Prince of Wales orthotics and they've always been a custom fit but this time they look two sizes too big and have a massive heel on them!
AFO's are custom moulded from a person's foot, so for them to be two sizes too big, I believe this can only mean these belong to someone else!
The massive heel and the heel in the shoe, tip my child forward a lot, making it very difficult to walk.
AFO's are supposed to make life easier, not the other way round! I don't know what's going on here but my child can't walk in these!
