We just found out that Kiage has Scheuermann's disease. This is  a condition that causes vertebrae to be misshaped. He will need to be in a back brace for quite awhile. The brace will start at the waist and go up and over the shoulders. He has to wear the brace 24/7 for six months and then we will evaluate where he is at and at that point if things are looking better he will be allowed to keep it off for maybe 5-6 hrs a day. Your spine is suppose to be no more than a 45 and Kaige is at a 56. The goal is to hopefully try and get him as close to a 45 as we can. Luckily we caught it while he is still growing because once you stop growing the only way to fix it is back surgery. We will have the brace made in December, they have to make a cast off his back so it fits him and then make the brace so come the end of December Kaige will have a new fashion accessory.
