Re: 2 Weeks in Helmet Red Spots!-

Since she has a red spot I'd check her hourly-every 2 hours tomorrow.

I'd hate for her to get a skin breakdown, then she'd be out of it for

days. Hopefully since it's been adjusted you won't have anymore fit

problems. My dd was banded " older " , we still went to CT every 2 weeks

and her band was adjusted at every appointment.
