ij0511: Many thanks Certainly worth a try Jan 23, 2022 7:59:02 GMT
castmenow: I used Bolton Brothers in Newcastle for my HKAFOs and the price was reasonable. Definitely north of Birmingham. Jan 31, 2022 8:15:55 GMT
miles: Is that you in the lovely braces in the wheel chair? Jan 31, 2022 19:04:50 GMT
castmenow: I saw a lady in town yesterday with a long arm cast in blue fibreglass, struggling a bit to pick up and manoeuvre things with such a restrictive cast, her friend was helping her out. I had not thought about casts for a while, but that got me going again. Feb 1, 2022 14:35:00 GMT
castmenow: to miles, no that is not me in the wheelchair, although I have some lovely braces Feb 1, 2022 14:35:38 GMT
kafomaker: 4 pair of KAFOs listed on Etsy Feb 9, 2022 17:45:39 GMT
kenny83: Similar question to ij0511. Does anyone know who can where I can get some thermoplastic AFO's around the Exeter areas at a good price? Feb 20, 2022 15:10:37 GMT
bracedfan: Hi all, can anyone help with this. I am searching for a movie (American) from the 70's or 80's which featured a villain wearing leg-braces and walked with canes. He stalked and terrified the couple next door. May 18, 2022 10:22:51 GMT
cf20915: Alan Alda - To Kill A Clown www.imdb.com/title/tt0069386/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_52 Tidbit - he is a real post polio. Jul 5, 2022 17:12:22 GMT
blaise: Hi everyone! I'm a new member from Hungary. I would like to have a conventional KAFO brace what you can see in the Forrest Gump. Can you halp me? Aug 31, 2022 9:01:24 GMT
castmenow: You can look on ebay for used items or try contacting vintage braces UK for new ones but hard to get them without visiting for measurement. Sept 4, 2022 8:16:00 GMT
poliowannabe: Wishing everyone a great leg brace experience . Sept 13, 2022 8:44:54 GMT
poliowannabe: New braces are always going to take time to get adjusted to. I think it takes at least 6 months to break in new Kafo's ? It depends on how much one likes to wear them ? Sept 13, 2022 8:56:18 GMT
maralila: How are all you pretenders out there doing?? See selected pictures from my collection on Instagram at williamwaynflete. If you want to chat privately, mail me at williamwaynflete [at] gmail [dot] com. May 15, 2023 7:17:45 GMT *
Ruben: Anybody from the Netherlands here ? ..... Jul 29, 2023 13:32:03 GMT
maralila: I'm the proud owner of a new KAFO from Vintage Braces. Hybrid leather/polypropylene, bail knee locks, traditional caliper spurs, Velcro fastenings, finishes polished stainless/black. For photos see bit.ly/3Q0bp37 . Oct 3, 2023 10:07:38 GMT
maralila: Anyone around London UK interested in one-to-one contact for pretending adventures or just comparing notes? Mail me at williamwaynflete [at] gmail [dot] com. More generally, is there any life out there? Oct 3, 2023 10:10:57 GMT
wendypummper: Hi My name is wendy pummper and i love to dress as a polio woman. Anyone fancy meeting uo or chatting i'm in the UK? Nov 5, 2023 15:20:19 GMT
louise: I like to chat with someone about adventures in braces.Iḿ also dreaming of beeing a good wheelchair driver. I lives in Sweden. Nov 6, 2023 19:21:44 GMT
