Im just afraid he wont adjust and will scream all the time and not sleep and he will be so bulky and heavy how can i carry him...hes hard to carry already! Plus how will he fit in his carseat and his swing, jumper, exersaucer, etc. AND, we are moving across 2 states a week after casting and im hoping he can handle the stress of a long car ride in a cast. He does well now and loves his car seat but will he after cast?> > Im literally having panic attacks thinking about it. His life is about to change so much and he doesnt even know it as he is only 13 months i cant tell him anything, which i guess is good so he wont stress out like i am. Im just afraid i wont be able to care for him properly with all this diaper changing tecnique and relearning to sit, roll over ,etc. Im also so afraid to see what his curve is now. It was 46 degrees in July but it is visably worse now. Hes even starting to have trouble balancing sitting and he wasnt like that before.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Thanks, Patty! See you there ; )Heidi, Bexon's Mama, (2 years old, in 3rd cast from Salt Lake City Shriners, currently down from 61 degrees to 25) From: diannapiquet <diannapiquet@ yahoo.com>Subject: [infantile_scoliosi s] Re: Panic Attacks about upcomming cast dateTo: infantile_scoliosis @yahoogroups. comDate: Thursday, September 17, 2009, 1:08 PM MELISSA! It's going to be OK I promise! I'm sorry I havent called you in the last couple of days (my sister just had her baby!) Call me today if you get a chance so we can chat--I'll try to reassure you (AGAIN!) but I know how it is. No amount of reassurance will do the trick until you've passed through the experience yourself and have come out the other side. Remember Isaiah adjusted to brain surgery, so he'll surely adjust to a measley ole' cast, so chill sista(:Dianna (mommy to Marcela, 15 mos. in 2nd cast)>> Hello everyone,> OK so im totally freaking out about my sons cast date. it is only 12 days away. 09-29-09..
