Introducing Myself

[anderkling]

Curtis, so much has already been mentioned. I banked my voice early on using ModelTalker. Just google it, and you'll be walked through. The company is very helpful and friendly. Now I have no voice whatsoever, so my banked voice is what I access when I type. I am so, so glad I did this. For many it's too late. There's just a window of opportunity to do this. So do it while you can. You won't be sorry!

Nikki I wore the AFOs yesterday with much better result. No extra soreness afterwards, although the toe numbness is still there (likely only because I need bigger shoes) Actually looking forward to wearing them today to a sailor's retirement ceremony and walking almost like a healthy person. Thanks all for the new welcomes and for the advice on voice banking. I am definitely planning on looking into that ASAP.

Glad things went better. Yes you almost certainly need bigger shoes. My afo added a full size and width too. Do you have afos for both? If not Nordstroms does ( or did recently) allow you to buy a different size pair as long as there was at least a full size difference

Yes I have AFOs for both legs. Got bigger shoes and toe numbness is gone. Still need to find the perfect shoes, but the brace situation is much better.
