RE: Logan #11

[Guest guest]

Yes, it does sound like a million years,

! Think about it this way though – my daughter wasn’t casted

until she was 29 months. She’ll be 4 in January and is currently in cast

#7. There is a LOT of growing still between 2 and 4. Hopefully when he moves into a

brace, the wonderful correction Logan has achieved will be maintained…but you don’t want to

miss any additional correction during growth spurts now. Hang in there,

momma!!

Hi ,

That sounds great to me and shows that Dr. P is taking no chances. IMO

and/or what I have been able to observe over the last decade is that a doc

with experience will keep on casting.....Ive seen many docs stop

prematurely only to find later that the curve regresses and the process

must begin all over again...That is if they are willing. Remember, the

spine, tissues & muscles must all be trained slowly to continue growing in

the most correct position...I believe that your doc is taking no chances

and that is fabulous. It will all be worth it friend.

Hope you had a great holiday.
