Re: Pics of untreated older kids

[Guest guest]

I cannot believe that no one was able to help you over there. That is

too bad. I hope you can get a few before your hearing. Now, is

the in the DOC band B & A section? That photo is dated

8/18/04 but your Prince finished on 9/7 so what gives? I

really want to see him.

,

In the Links section of this site, under the Plagicephaly Studices and

Research folder, you can find a paper published by researchers from

Cranial Tech called: Treatment of the " older " infant with

plagiocephaly. In that paper there is a picture comparing a CT of girl

diagnosed with plagiocephaly while she was an infant, with a CT of the

same child when she is older (perhaps 3 or 4) - showing that the

deformity was maintained. Its kind of a painful image to look at since

it is noted that the girl did not receive helmet treatment due to

financial limitations. It does, however establish the case that after

a certain age only intervention with a helmet can help - so perhaps

you could use that paper for your appeal.

Best Wishes with your case,

Hi ,

Go to the plagio kids section/ B/Untreated Plagio to see

his older brother Ethan. was treated w/a DOCband, Ethan was

not, and you can see Ethan's plagio )forehead bossing and ear

misalignment) in the picture that was taken when he was over 2.

Hope that helps!

Thanks for the info, . Who is Ethan's Mom? I wouldn't want to

use any photo without permission.
