Guest guest Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 Hello Melany Now that the worst is over the next few months will seem like a breeze compared to the scan. How long did this take? He sounds like he really did great. Let us know when he gets his helmet and how he adjusts to it. What kind of schedule will he be on as far as wearing it at first? Seems like every helmet has different schedules. Ours was on 23hrs right away with skin checks every so often.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 Thanks for the reasurance. I forgot to time his casting, but it seemed much longer than I am sure it really was. We will get fitted on June 2, snd I guess that is when they will tell us the directions. I will be sure to let you all know. I plan to post pics soon.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 So sad! I'm glad that is behind you! Hannah screamed for the whole time during each of her castings (and even for when she was digitized!) too. I'm glad he bounced back quickly though . Let us know when you get his band! , mom to Hannah, DOCband #3 3/30 Cape Cod, Ma --- In Plagiocephaly , " melanymoss " <melanymoss@y...> wrote: > OMG! I am so glad I was prepared.
