    Wow. This puts perspective on the role of therapists helping to maintain condition during chemo and potentially the posture that children (or any person) may hold while very unwell and non-ambulating.

    I hope they do a follow up to see if the range is changed with general activity. Much of the gait changes could be related to wasting and lasting side effect of chemo. Hmmm.......
