Re: Parent of plagio child/ Aurora, IL

[Guest guest]

Hi all chgolanders, I am in Glendale Hts. Grew up in Lombard and I'm

a realtor so I know all these burbs pretty well. My son just started

wearing his helmut a few days ago. We were refered to Ballert

industries on Mill st in Naperville. What is the difference between

active and passive with the helmuts???- Is anyone else here using the

ballert helmut??? I am so paranoid of making sure I am using the

best/doing the best for my son. My family is in the insurance

business. One works in sales for blue cross blue shield the other for

the Dupage medical group. I may be able to ask them for any direction

with insurance issues. Email me anytime! mzola@...

Looking forward to getting to know everyone better!
