I am helping my 11 year old daughter with posting this thread. She has been wearing a brace for her scoliosis for a little over a year now. She has experienced the same struggles many of you have written about with wearing a T-Shirt under her brace. This is especially true in the summer months, when it is hot & she wears tank tops. She is participating in "Invent Iowa" which is a type of science fair that is geared toward new inventions or improvements on current inventions. She is trying to 'invent' a liner for the brace, which would replace the need for wearing a t-shirt. For part of her 'invention' she is to do background research. We have read other threads that talks about some sort of 'bodysuit' that is made by spinecor, but have not been able to find any 'liners' for the braces. It seems like many of you may like this type of alternative to wearing a t-shirt. She is asking that any of you who are willing, please take the time to reply to this thread & answer these questions:
Do you wear a t-shirt under your brace?
What are the issues you have with wearing a t-shirt?
If it was available, would you prefer to use a liner that could be more easily concealed under your clothes?
Any other comments/suggestions for my invention.
Thank you for your time!!
