Guest guest Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 I am so grateful to all of you (particularly Diane)! You ladies are amazing! Today I e-mailed some photos to CT in Phoenix. Interestingly just today I received the patient report from Kate's visit to the craniofacial clinic at Children's Hosp. And also talked to a lady whose neighbor wore the Clarren helmet for 6 months. Are these signs?? I hope not everyone time I look at the photo of the Clarren helmet I feel sick inside...I'm thinking that travelling to CT, though crazy(!), is the route we will go. After taking photos I can see the improvement in Kate's head shape. I also realized that even though she can look to her right she still spends most of her time looking to her left. I sometimes wonder if her head really is " good enough " and I'm just going for perfection since I feel responsible for messing it up in the first place. I will let you all know what CT has to tell me. Jeanne mom to Kate (nearly 7 mos.) Wash. State Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Hi Jeanne, Thats great you got the photos emailed and please keep us posted on what they say. It's a difficult decision, but hopefully CT will give you the information to get you to the point where you're happy with which ever way you decide to go. , mom to Hannah, DOCgrad Cape Cod, Ma http://hannahsnoggin.typepad.com/hannahs_noggin/ --- In Plagiocephaly , " jmbkenny " <jmbkenny@f...> wrote: > > I am so grateful to all of you (particularly Diane)!

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Hello Jeanna I just had a really nice reply get eaten by . Grr I will summ it up. I think it's great that you decided for CT, and don't think it's crazy at all. Also I don't think you messend anything up. Plagio is not something we do to our kids. It is something that happens. I know we Moms tend to think it's our fault b/c we should have prevented it, but even the best Mom has to realize that not everyting is in our hands. That said please let us know how the consult at CT goes.
