Guest guest Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 You're so lucky. That is wonderful that she fell asleep. screamed his ever lovin head off the entire time. Congrats on getting the hard part out of the way. The fitting is a breeze.... never even noticed the thing on his head. There is a pic in plagiokids of him literally seconds after they placed it on and he was all smiles. Good luck, Dawn > > Hi everyone, > > I will take in to CT tomorrow for casting of her DOC band.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Good for you and your positive attitude! Congrats on the great incast correction! Best wishes during the " adjustment phase " We are on our way to Dallas right now for cast #7. I can't believe it's already been almost a year since we started! Time flies and cast life just becomes the new norm:) Tame Sent from my iPhone On Jan 25, 2012, at 2:37 PM, " curtdennis2003 " <curtdennis2003@...> wrote: Brayden got his first cast today in Cincinnati and everyone was really nice and took care of us. Brayden went from 42 degrees out of cast to 15 degrees in cast. So a great first casting! We got home to Columbus, with him sleeping the whole 2 hrs. He's now pretty cranky and I think a little upset with us. LOL! I can see where the first few days are a little rough...but we'll get there.
