So Sean got measured and we ordered two items from our clinic from DAFO Cascade.
****
Update**** the SMO is for his left foot (unaffected) and the AFO is for the right foot the affected one)We ordered the JumpStart Leap Frog which helps
moderate pronation or supination and associated gait instability.
open ankle trimline of this supramalleolar orthosis (SMO) allows free dorsiflexion (DF)-plantarflexion (PF) movement.

We also ordered the JumpStart Kangaroo which helps
moderate pronation, supination, toe walking and knee hyperextension.
proximal posterior upright on this ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) blocks PF.
anterior opening allows free DF. Posterior upright is meant to encourage lower leg to move away from it, into DF.

We also added more to his theratogs before he wore the top piece and the bottom piece we now have to tape a X on his tummy because he is not using his tummy muscles and hips and his rib cages are still way to high. I will try to get a picture of him with his tape later today.
