New to group

[Guest guest]

Hi. I am new to the group. My son, Wesley, is 6 months old and he just got the Starband on 1/3/06. We have had to make several return visits for adjustments. I feel so stupid. I did not realize there was this support group. I wish I had found this before he got his Starband. I didn't realize there were so many different kinds of devises.

Has anyone been to Valentine & Co. in Richmond, Virginia?. I did not see them listed on the list. I was told they are the only ones in Richmond that do this. I am really surprised since this is such a big city. We even have Medical College of Virginia that is very well known.

Also, my health insurance (Southern Health) had denied the claim saying that it is just cosmetic. The tips on the website for filing an appeal were very helpful. It is going to be $1,500, and I had to pay $750 upfront when they did the cast. I have my fingers crossed it will be appealed.

Thanks so much ---- Bonnie
