How it all started..




My name is Devon Napper and I am 13 years old. I was diagnosed with Scoliosis 3 years ago at the age of 10. I was going in for my yearly check up and that day just felt weird to me. We did everything as usual but then at the end she asked me and my brother to bend over... That was then the beginning of my Scoliosis Journey. A couple months later I went to see a Pediatric Orthopedic to see the degree of my Scoliosis.  I did a bunch of X-rays and then was sent back to room to wait for the doctor, when he arrived he said my degree was at 28 degrees which means I am in the range to wear a night brace. I was very upset about this but thankful at the time it wasn't worse than 28 degrees.
