Guest guest Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 Hi Krista, Glad to hear that your little one is still doing well in the STARlight. My son turns one very soon, so I know what you mean about them being active. Please keep us posted whenever her graduation comes around! I am sure that it will be here faster than you know. - mom to Aidan STARband 8/26/03 12/19/03 GR Mi > Hello, everyone! > I apologize for not keeping up with all the goings on around here - I > have had to go back to full-time work (which was NOT in our plan) and > life has been very busy.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 Krista, I'm glad that your still seeing correction. The STARlight that your using is a passive style isn't it? If so, that would be the reasoning of it taking so long to actually " graduate " . I wish you luck and hey, if she is still correcting then your still on track. Happy Early Birthday!! Keep us updated when you can.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 Dustie What a coincidence! I am just trying to go through all of the helmets/bands in the FDA approved database to see if they are active and passive, and what age range they treat.... all three Starlight designs are " active " according to the Orthomerica website! Krista, It was great to see an update from you on your daughter and her starlight! I hope she graduates soon.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 Krista, It's good to hear from you! How is your daughter progressing? I'd love to see before and after pictures after she graduates. > Hello, everyone! > I apologize for not keeping up with all the goings on around here - I > have had to go back to full-time work (which was NOT in our plan) and > life has been very busy.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 Hi Krista, Thanks for checking in and giving us an update. Too band she won't be band free for her birthday, but it is good that she still has time to round more if she needs it. Let us know when she graduates! , mom to Hannah, DOCgrad Cape Cod, Ma > Hello, everyone! > I apologize for not keeping up with all the goings on around here - I > have had to go back to full-time work (which was NOT in our plan) and > life has been very busy.
