Stress

You know, my daughter, who is 12, has been going through an emotional time with her father and his "new" girlfriend of the past year. My daughter was diagnosed this year in Aug w/20 degree, and then today at the doctor's, it's increased to 25 and 39 (an s curve). We are getting the Boston brace and she is to wear it for 20 hours per day for the next 2 1/2 years at least. So the stress thing is concurrent with my daughter's scoliosis as well. However, 12 is a stressful age in general with puberty...
