Hey --We casted logan at 9 months old. - From: rachelmjacobs <rachelmjacobs@...> infantile scoliosis treatment Sent: Friday, February 10, 2012 11:05 PM Subject: Re: Questions you wished you had asked...

,

I see this is the 12th cast for your 2 year old. How old was he when he received his first one? The reason I ask is because Ella is only 4 1/2 months old. I have yet to find any information on a child being casted this young, BUT everyone says that time is of the utmost importance (and I wholeheartedly agree).
