My Story
I have Charcot Marie Tooth disease (CMT). I have foot drop and have been wearing Allard Blue Rockers for many years now. If I did not wear my braces, I would not be able to walk safely around the block. However because of wearing Allard Blue Rockers, I can walk and hike so much further than I would have thought possible. I have recently gone on a hike where I did 5.5 miles with an 800 foot elevation gain!!! My motto is to live life to the fullest. I love to travel and my husband and I do not let my disability stop us from seeing amazing sights from all over the world.
