  • may i know from where can i get these mail me stitchwell@yahoo.com

  • From me 10/10

  • Hi Ron,

    I have polio too and have been walking with KAFO on my left leg for years. I am thinking about getting a stance control and saw your video. What a dramatic change in your walking!

    Can you tell me about you.. I can't tell from the video... Were you walking with crutches before the stance control? The video shows you walking with crutches and also without. Did you have any muscle control in the leg with KAFO?

    I have so many questions for you but am running out of space here.

  • Sufri de polio a la edad de 2 años, desde entonces uso el aparato "clasico" si asi se puede decir, pronto voy a estar probandome estos nuevos sistemas de articulacion en la rodilla. Gracias por compartir estos videos que nos enseñan y nos animan. Felicidades.

  • Amazing..!

  • Unaided his man could barely walk and was headed for a wheelchair. With the help of the KAFO he can do most things he used to do and has his quality of life back. Send this link to anyone who it may help to better their lives.
