[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How long is sleepaway camp? I think you are supposed to wear those braces 16+ hours per day. Basically only having it off for sleep. This seems like it would be very problematic at a multi week sleepaway camp with the activities they day. [/quote] I’m one of the PPs who wore a brace. It’ was not problematic for most activities, and I went to sleepaway camp without an issue. I was supposed to try to wear mine 23 hours a day, but there was leeway for swimming, sports, and special occasions like dances and parties. I played field hockey and dove competitively during those years, all with my doctor’s approval and encouragement. I did end up quitting gymnastics, but my scoliosis was not the only reason for that decision. [/quote]
