Guest guest Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Well, this article made me gasp! Especially this line: " Every time she dives, " Zic said, " and goes head first into someone it's, `Whew, OK and she gets up and just throws the ball right away.' " Now it's the last thing on people's minds. ******************************************** To think a child with Chiari is being allowed to participate in a sport where she " goes head first into someone " is shocking. For all that I know and have learned from other patients and online support groups, I'm afraid for this girl and also fear she will have real problems in the future after being allowed to do this sport that so obviously is wrong for someone with Chiari and skull base issues. just my thoughts!

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 I have Chiari as well as my son. Dr Bolognese and Dr Frim from Chicago told my son that he could still play baseball as long as he didn't slide head first.
