Is There Anyone Else Out There Who Was Born With Scoliosis And Is Small For Their Age?

[FlameRedSarah]

I am 32 years old and i was born with Scoliosis. I am 4ft because of it.

shame to hear this, have you thought of the spinal recorrection...a friend's daughter has done it and plays golf to a high standard, the setting of the rods giving a good posture for an excellent swing.

what the hell are you talking about, ra- this is a genuine encouragement to someone with an awful condition - though it's amazing what can be achieved after correction surgery, as proven by the daughter of a friend of mine with the condition.

Disgraceful and reported.

DTC sorry I thought you were taking the P talking about golf swings...

[DTCwordfan]

apology accepted. fyi, the rods in the back are set as such and are well positioned to allow for a great golf swing....if properly coached, as the daughter of this friend of mine had from a mutual pro friend who has played the Masters, the Walker Cup and is considered as one of the best coaches for youngsters and scoliosis.....

be careful who you 'deride'.......

like I said DTC sorry for the misunderstanding -don't milk it ;-)

We're all identical on AB.

There seems to be a few on AB with dual personalities

Quite the opposite . my daughter was born with it but it was discovered early so she had special exercises and learned to balance herself in dressing etc. She is 5'8" and fine now.

I hope Sarah finds something like what happened to this gal to encourage her, whatever it may be.
