The current situation in the UK

[Guest guest]

Hi

I'm in the UK, and we're currently looking into what can be done

for our son Robin.

Whilst I've quite a lot of print-outs to read through, to summarize:

it already looks like the NHS is going to be of limited help and

that calling Medistox or Kings College / Dr Blecher is the best

course of action.

I'd be grateful of any other suggestions to get him speedily

assessed and, if need be, into a band.

Hi

Thanks to this site I emailed Dr Blecher on Friday, had a reply same

day and saw him on Sunday. He assessed our son and made a cast for a

helmet the same day - we get the helmet in 2 weeks.

I highly recommend you contact him.

Philip,

Welcome to the group!

We have several currently active members from the UK that are very

helpful to new members joining from the UK, such as yourself, and

I'm pleased to see you have already received a couple of replies to

your post! I'll yield to their advice, since I don't personally

know how the healthcare system works over there.

Would you let us know if we can be of further help to you and your

son?

Regards,

Christie (Mom to Repo'd Remy)

Hi Christie - and thanks also to Alison & Ian

It's good to hear that there are options in the UK.

I'm following these up now.
