Hi! It's probably my most important video so far as I explain my whole story with my disability - arthrogryposis. I tell you all about my surgeries, exercises, braces, and everything else that you should know when you're a parent of a child with AMC or when you're just curious! I hope you find this video helpful!
I hope you like it and if you have any suggestions of what types of videos you’d like to see on my channel, please comment below!

Please, share this video with anyone who has a child with AMC (or a similar disability) or who is disabled themselves. I really hope that my experiences could help people become more independent 🤗 thank you for watching!

Are there videos of exercises as a new born? I’m currently pregnant and would love to know or see them?

@@kellyvelarde6236 Hi, I'm sorry but only videos we had were on old VHS cassettes and they do not work anymore. However, please do email me at 99percentable@gmail.com and I'd love to maybe exchange WhatsApps or something and chat. I can get my parents to describe the exercises as they had to learn them as well to do them a few times a day at home with me

Hi Ola! So nice to see you. I'm so impressed with your bravery. Your legs look great. My last surgery was 21 years ago, so things have changed a lot, but I was lucky to have great doctors. Walking is the best exercise, it keeps your muscles and your bones strong and it's never too late to start. Keep up the good work.

My baby also has the same problem of AMC in her lower limbs. Now she is 4 months old. When she was born we didn't know how to deal with the situation. First of all it was very difficult to accept the fact that my baby is born not normal. We live in a small town n doctors out there said it is complicated n it can't be treated here. She has to be taken in a big hospital. But then she had a lot of pain in her lower limbs. It was very difficult to feed her. She used to cry so much even at the time of changing diapers. When we went to hospital for different test people used to ask me whether she wl b able to walk. Or didn't I knew when I was pregnant with her. I think those two questions used to kill me again n again. She was born on 18th of may during tat time there was much fear of covid 19. There was no flights, no trains to take her to a big hospital. Somehow I could manage to have video consultation with a good doctor n he told me to do the baby's exercise. It was only after two months we could meet the doctor. But I don't think he has handled such cases before bt yes he is trying has best n has knowledge of it. When I knew about her after five days of delivery I was shocked coz I never thought the case could b such severe. I didn't talk much or eat properly or even smile n waered thoughts came to me.. Bt as it is said time is the best healer now her treatment has started I m little relaxed. After seeing your video I feel so encouraged n thank you so much for sharing. If there is any suggestions for me please let me know. Coz till now I haven't met the right doctor who has experience in such cases. As looking at your photos my baby also has same pattern as yours bt only her lower limbs are affected. Once again thank you so much for sharing. God bless u.

Hi, thank you so much for sharing your story. I'm located in Europe so I only know doctors here but what I would advise you to do is to join Facebook groups about arthrogryposis. There's a lot of them and some have thousands of members who are amazing and very helpful and I'm sure you'll find someone who knows doctors and hospitals close to where you're located. The only thing I can encourage you to do now is to exercise ALL THE TIME (a few times a day). And stabilise her legs when you're not exercising to keep the achieved progress. If there are no doctors specialising in AMC in your area, try finding a physiotherapist as they'll usually know how to exercise with your daughter and they might also be able to connect you with some good doctors. I wish you and your daughter all the best!

Thank you for sharing your video. My baby also has the same disability as your bt only at her lower limbs. Because of the pandemic her treatment was started when she was two months until we met a doctor after we came to a big hospital. We live in a small town there r no big or good hospitals. Bt my concern is tat the doctor treating my baby don't have much experience in this field. Though he has knowledge it seems it is his first case. I want to go to a specialist bt don't have any idea. I am from India. Your video has given me a new ray of hope n encouraged me so much. If u could guide me further? Where i can take my baby for appropriate treatment?Once again thank you so much for sharing it gives emmence hope to parents like me. God bless you

Hi I know it’s 2 years since you posted this comment but I also have AMC and go to a excellent doctor in West Palm Beach Florida, you can look him up on google his name is Dr David S Feldman. He’s really good and experienced for AMC! I hope this is helpful, I hope your journey (with your AMC baby) is going well!

Hi, so sorry for such a late reply. I don't use this account anymore. I do not have knee flexion contractures and never had any bigger problems with my knees. I can't straighten one of my elbows, though.
