Did you know that there are almost 4,000,000 fractures in the United States, annually?* Were you aware that Orthopedic Surgeons are often quoted as saying, “fractures occur more often in clusters, than not.” Simply put, a significant number of fractures happen to the same person or in the same family. Well, that applies to my daughter! She’s 12 and has broken 7 bones in her life-time. My son, 14, hasn’t broken one bone (knock on wood).
Welcome to the CastCoverz! Blog. You’ll learn all I know about breaks from a mother’s perspective as well as growing a business during difficult times. CastCoverz! has products for casts, braces and most recently, orthopedic walking boots. Our products add some levity during a difficult time while providing important functions: casts, braces and boots are kept clean and prevent snagging and scratching. We sell world wide and in select orthopedic clinics in the United States. Our products are latex free and made right here in the good ‘ole US of A.
My goal for this blog is to educate, listen and learn. I look forward to your comments.
Success and Blessings!
