My husband James and I have a little girl called Jessica. She is 22months old and has Bilateral PFFD. She appears to have a rare type as she is missing several bones and the precise anatomy of her legs is currently unknown. She is missing the fibula but has feet but no ankle joint and is missing her little toes. She either has a tiny femur and tibias or a hip joint and femur. There is currently confusion about this.
Despite all this she is very mobile and gets around on her hands and feet - bear style. Her latest trick is to lift her body weight on her hands and flip herself over onto her back-effectively doing somersaults. It scares me silly but she thinks it's hilarious!! Nothing stops her and she has a will of iron. Is this a common trate? :)
