@CayugaJana @Miss Lydia I can't even think of how I would do it...it's not like a hunchback type curve, it looks almost more like one hip is higher than the other, like her spine is twisted? It is odd, but we seem to have the same type of scoliosis. Only thing I can do for mine is strengthen the side of my body that's weaker- nothing will align me. I just can't figure out how I would strengthen her weaker side, and I am not sure which side is really weaker. She falls over on both sides if she gets too wobbly, and she can't seem to take one step in front of another, she kinda hops forward or scoots backwards. When I pick her up, I gently pull up on one hip and push down a little on the other and it *looks* like it's really straightening her out. She doesn't mind it at all either. I just can't figure out how I can *keep* her in that position. I thought about taping her legs as if she had spraddle leg, but I don't think that would help because her feet go out from under her. Like when she starts to tip over, she can't pull that leg out from under her body to catch herself. The leg just stays too far beneath her body so she spills.
