My daughter Kirsten was just diagnosed with a slight curvature today. Her pediatrician noticed she was a little crooked as she stood during a check up for something else. We had the x-rays and he told me today. Kirsten is 6 years old. He said to wait and check her again in 6 months. I have no idea what the future will bring for her. If they catch it early enough and brace it when severe enough can this prevent ever needing the surgery? I, of course, am upset and fearful for her. She is fine with her diagnosis. Although, I am not sure she really knows what it means. Does anyone have any helpful tips or advice to someone new starting on this journey. I just feel so lost because there is nothing to do but wait. Thanks!
