I am struggling with what size I should try for these ghillies. I am a US women’s 9-9.5 in street shoes, a 6.5 in Rutherford hard shoes, and a 6.5 in Broga soft shoes. I felt like my Brogas were a little too loose, so I ordered a size 6 in Hullachan Hugs- they were so tight I couldn’t get them on my feet. Sent them back and ordered a 6.5, since that’s what my other shoes are. My toes pop all the way out of the front. Then ordered a 7 and 7.5, figuring one of those MUST be my size. Even the 7.5 seems a touch too small! I am so confused, and irritated because I’ve been waiting to try these out for a while now.

I feel so hopeless. My daughter's lack of toileting is actually making me depressed. She will be 6 in July, and has always had a strong resistance to any sort of toilet training, although we recently had a breakthrough medically with why she was always constipated. She has chilaiditi syndrome, a super rare condition where a portion of her colon is wedged in between her diaphragm and liver. This caused her to be constipated for 3 years. She stayed in the hospital for FOUR DAYS getting a clean out, and it was rough. We started sending her to school in underwear, but she still doesn't care, and will sit in it all day long. She refuses to wipe herself, so we still do it, because if we don't she will get sores on her bottom. I honestly don't know what to do anymore. Literally NOTHING makes her care. We've incentivized with toys, books, playdates with friends, I honestly can't think of anything else we can do. I've been on this sub for years, and I truly don't even know if posting here will help. This is my last hope.
