Cali, :)
How about just asking/discussing getting just a Consultation with a BPI Specialist with your family?

It may help you to print out all these posts on this page. It may help them to know that there are no costs/expenses at Shriner's(Serves you until age 21 and all is free)

Keep it simple for discussing, may help you too.

In Sacramento Calif there is a Shriners hospital its free and they specialize in orthopaedic's and spinal cord injuries there phone number is 916-453-2000 Talk to your parents explain that there is no cost they will check you out really well and you will also see an occupational therapist they will give you exercises to do at home make splints if they feel you need them and tell you if there are any surgeries that would help you. Hope this helps
