The end of the Boots!!! Hip Hip Hurraaaaaay……

on March 1, 2013

When Jessica reached the age of 5 we knew that the end of her treatment was in sight.. this was just the best time ever! I couldn’t wait for her to be able to sleep in all of the positions you and I can enjoy, to be able to go to sleep overs and not worry about wearing her boots and bars, to be able to actually get out of bed and run into our bedroom when we were still asleep – yes I wished for that!

The day came at an appointment not long after her 5th Birthday.. we were over the moon and all of a sudden quite emotional.. throughout her treatment we had always tried to continue as though we were unaffected by the talipes.. we never made a fuss of it and some people who knew us were unaware of her treatment at all.. but yet now we could let it all out – the relief that it was all over and that our beautiful little girl could sleep any bloomin way she wanted..

what did she want for a celebration – KFC! that’s it? nothing else.. 🙂

Boots and Bar over night – COMPLETE!!! yaaaay xxxImage
