Guest guest Posted November 6, 2002 Report Share Posted November 6, 2002 I just wanted to let everyone know Jenna's rugburn is getting better. We saw the orthosist today for her regular adjustment. She said to keep Jenna's helmet off for 1 more day. She said in just 2 short weeks Jenna's head in back is already rounding. She was excited about Jenna's progress. She said hopefully jenna will keep up with her growth spurt and not have to be in the band as long as 1st suspected!

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2002 Report Share Posted November 6, 2002 Angie: That's a great update! Glad her rugburn is getting better, best to keep the band off until it's completely healed, you wouldn't want to irritate it any more. Already rounding?? YAY, what a great feeling Debbie Abby's mom DOCgrad MI > I just wanted to let everyone know Jenna's rugburn is getting > better. We saw the orthosist today for her regular adjustment.

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2002 Report Share Posted November 6, 2002 Jenna still has a lot of rounding to do but it is comforting to see a change in just a few weeks. Tomorrow she sees the plastic surgeon. He just wants to check her a few times during the treatment. I am exicited to see a change. I wish she was able to wear it now but I know it is very important to let the rugburn heal. the orthosist gave me something to put on her head before the helmet. This way it will keep the helmet from rubbing her sore. Hopefully tomorrow we can get back to wearing the helmet. This week I will be sending out my appeal. My insurance has 5 days to say they received it and then 20 days to give a decision. Angie Re: Jenna's update Angie:That's a great update!

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2002 Report Share Posted December 3, 2002 Hi thanks for asking. I haven't heard a word from Bluecross. They have until Dec.12th. I need to read through my book and see what happens if they don't respond before then. In the mean time, I feel like jenna has had good correction going on. she doesn't go back to the orthosist until 12/11. I am excited to see what she will say. Some days I look at her and she looks great but then there are times I think I look to hard. I mean i don't think most people would notice her plagiocephaly anymore. She still has a spot on the top right hand side that needs to do more rounding. Her ears still seem missaligned. I have read posts where some say they should improve and others that say they usually don't. I guess we will have to wait and see. Overall I feel she has had great improvement in 5 weeks. Jenna sees the same specialist as Spencer. It sounds like they are really happy with Dr. Singhal too. I would definitely reccomend him to any one in the Kansas city Missouri or Kansas City Kansas area.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2002 Report Share Posted December 3, 2002 Oops I said 5 weeks for Jenna's Starband. It has been 6 weeks yesterday. They have gone really quick! I thought it would seem like forever with her helmet. It is actually going pretty quick.
