Re: Opinions and advice on Annie-Mae

[Guest guest]

Thanks for the additional info . I'm very happy didn't

require surgery & is a typical 4 yr old (My daughter is 4 too and

fullll of attitude these days!).

Also happy to hear they are sure Annie's condition is not cranio!

You certainly wouldn't be " wasting " a Dr's time by having them look

at her plagio! Cranial Tech created " Severity Assessment Forms " in

our LINKS section, you may want to look at those diagrams & compare

Annie's headshape to those, they are quite helpful in judging

severity.

Please keep us posted.
