Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 After getting mad at the doctor, I went ahead and contacted Shriners. We go to Erie for an eval on Sept 14th. I'm so happy right now.aMommy to Doc 19 degrees in braceFrom: NIck Guthe <nickguthe@...>infantile scoliosis treatment Cc: Montoya <isop06@...>Sent: Tue, August 17, 2010 7:28:39 PMSubject: Bex update Bex is safely in a bright green Incredible Skinny Hulk cast!He is still holding in cast at about 20 degrees.I am sad we didn't get a leap there. Out of cast he is probably 30-35 degrees, and this Mother does not feel safe at that number.The very good news is he now has almost NO rotation- he began casting with severe rotation.Thank you so much for your posts and prayers, we will press on for 2-3 more casts at least, praying for lower numbers by then. It's emotional each and every trip, but we met The Hannahs- Noah is one of our biggest inspirations- he looks just awesome in his brace! And we got to meet Olivia and her family- a treat. You CAST parents are the cream of the crop.Heidi, Bexon's Mommy, (3 years old, in 8th cast from Salt Lake City Shriners, currently down from 62 degrees to 20 in cast) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
