My fiance has been dealing with scoliosis for a long time, and we'd like to find a good back brace for her to help alleviate the constant pain. However, she has a very small waist (18"-20") and I haven't been able to find anything near her size, even in childern's sizes. We've scoured the Internet and yet nothing has come up. I find it hard to believe that she's the smallest woman in the entire world with scoliosis or back problems! Any thoughts or suggestions would be very much appreciated.

My wife who is 5'1" and 95 pounds had to wear a back brace 24/7 for almost a year for two fractures. Her braces went from her hips to the back of her head and under her chin with a strap around her forehead. They did a wonderful job fitting it to her and despite being so immobilizing, it was comfortable. It was a custom made ctlso brace. So it is possible to get a proper fitting brace for a small lady.
