When Did You First Notice Your Brachy?

If you read my first post you know how Brachy runs in my family (when it shoes up), and how many of them share Brachy with me.

My sister is one of those people. Here is a picture showing how her toe began showing signs of Brachy before me because she is older. It also shows how I was born with normal toes. Flat and wide, but normal looking. ;o)

So when did you first notice your Brachy?

I thought you'd like to see this close up. The blue is how it was, the red is about 6mo post-op.

Did you know that webbed toed are very common? I remember as a child I had a neighbor, Daniel, who had his 2nd and 3rd toe that way. With all the toe issues in my family it seemed so normal to have a friend with something like that. ;o)

As I mentioned in this past post, there is always someone who has it worse than you:

Some more shoes. I got these last summer. Again, way too over zealous, coudn't wear them. The straps are way snug. But today I put them on and VOILA! They don't hurt. Walked the dog, cleaned the house and all is well.

In fact they are tight in all the right places. And as I mentioned in this past post, "pressure" is the best thing for, (and to avoid), hypertrophic scaring. 

I'll leave you with a flower I've never seen before in my life. It came from a very tall and huge tree in the park.

CIAO!
