Hi everyone,
When my daughter had her last mod-quad surgery at age 7, my mother-in-law took some regular clothing and modified them by cutting down the entire seam on the affected, splinted side and attached hidden velcro so that the garment could be almost literally velcroed on and it looked as though it was fitted for her rather than so baggy under the splint, etc. This also helped so much with dressing, and she even wore some of the clothing afterwards in the beginning when her arm was still sore.
I would love to give this clothing to someone who could use it. She also made a wool winter cape that specially fitted the splint and kept her warm in the winter. Other items include four long sleeve light-weight shirts, a couple of sweatshirts, and four solid white short sleeve shirts with zippered vests to wear over them if it was colder outside. It is not a tremendous amount of clothing (and of course it is used), but it was plenty for my daughter for the time the splint was on.
If anyone is interested, please let me know. I will just send them on to the first person interested. My email address is: wstorms@comcast.net.
Best wishes to all....Wendy

This would have been perfect for us if my daughter was a little older. She will only be 2 after surgery. So nice of you to think of others! I am sure someone can put these to good use.

Thank you, Jennifer, for the suggestion! I have posted on that website as well. I haven't had anyone reply that they could use the clothing, but I would sure hate to just throw it away (I don't think Goodwill would have use for it!). Maybe someone will find use for it on that website. Thanks again....
