About the solution
For her treatment, she needed a leg brace. As a result, she saw herself having to wear uncomfortable velcro underwear. To solve the problem, she created her "snap-on" underwear. They are in everything similar to regular underwear, with an innovative feature: they snap along the sides, making it easy for anyone in a similar situation to hers.
