More medical Casting explained

As I said in a previous post I had Cereal casting two or three times when i was in my younger years. Cereal casting is where they put casts on the more severely affected limb in this case it is my left leg to help straighten and reposition muscles and streach them.
I hated this because i was young and dealthly afraid of the loud cast saw that they use to get thim off. I have visual impairment which makes my hearing much more sensitive than most. I am not sure but this could be the case with most with CP. this is what caused my fractures on my heal because it softened the bones and i got bumped with a door shortly after so i had to go right back into another cast while it healed.
