Clubfoot - The Quest for a Better Life for Millions of Children

Clubfoot: The Quest for a Better Life for Millions of Children tells the little-known story of the world's most common skeletal birth defect and development of a revolutionary method for eliminating lifelong disability for the 200,000 children born every year with this deformity. The hero of this story is Dr. Ignacio Ponseti (1914-2009) who, as a young physician, became enmeshed in the Spanish Civil War before being forced into exile in France and then Mexico. He eventually found a home in the heartland of America where, despite opposition from the medical establishment, he began a life-long quest to reshape children's futures from lives of pain and disability to lives of hope and promise. Because of Dr. Ponseti s quest, and the many healthcare professionals, parents, and other advocates who have taken it up, a normal, disability-free life is now possible for hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of children. This book answers three questions. Who was Ignacio Ponseti? What is the treatment he developed? How successful is his quest?


The Parents' Guide to Clubfoot

Written in everyday language, the book covers clubfoot in babies and older children from diagnosis through treatment for mild to severe cases. It provides details on clubfoot, its causes, treatment and care, along with an extensive list of resources and clubfoot assessment aids. In keeping with currently preferred treatments in the U.S., it emphasizes the Ponseti method, which minimizes surgery, and includes perspectives from Ponseti-trained clubfoot doctors and parents of children with clubfoot. However, separate chapters discuss all pre- treatment and post-treatment care options and one chapter covers surgery and post-surgery care if it becomes necessary

Welcome to Dreamland

Alex was born with bilateral talipes, club feet to you and me. He struggled to sleep in his boots and bar until one night his Mummy told him about Dreamland.

In his boots and bar,
With straps so tight.
Alex struggled to sleep through the night

His legs uncomfortable,
His toes too hot!
He tossed and turned and banged his cot!

His Mummy came running,
He sat on her knee.
She dried the tears from his eyes and explained why it had to be...

She rocked her baby
And held his hand.
Whispering a lullaby “go play in Dream Land”
