Re: Back to Utah for Casting

[Guest guest]

Hi Tawney

That is great news. The cancellation will mean that Tyler is in that

cast so much quicker, and will be able to put your mind at rest! I

was worried about putting Siobhan in the cast after nearly 2 months

of not being braced, but as I've already said, she's doing great.

(And still is!).

It was the Best Western that we stayed in last time, with the (large)

FREE breakfast, and pool.

Good Luck, and we'll be thinking of you!

Tawney,

Thanks for the update.

F.Y.I.,

Parents must be aware that if the series of plaster jackets is removed prematurely, the curve can regress. Its better to have them on for too long, than to remove them too early.

The longer the spine is held in the more corrected position, the better chance the spine has of maintaining that growth pattern.

Have a nice weekend!
