Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Hi This is really the first time that I have posted and introduced myself, but I have been reading as many emails that come through as I can and I noticed that Jenn and Staci live really close to me. I live about 10 minutes outside of Indian Land, SC, but I actually work on Hwy 160 (considered Steele Creek Road - close to Westinghouse Blvd, Charlotte, NC). My son, Gunnar is 6 1/2 mos old just started wearing the Hanger helmet 4 days ago. He will wear it for 5 hours today. He's doing really good with it, but I do think we will need to do some adjustments because I have noticed some red spots. He has his first re-check appt on Thursday. He actually doesn't seem to mind it much. My insurance is with Unicare, and I actually had to pay for the helmet up front before they filed with my insurance. My cost was $1750.00 - Hanger filed with my insurance, and I am waiting to see if I will be reimbursed anything now. I hated paying that much, but I would do it again. Right now is the critical stage of his head forming, and since we caught it early, hopefully, he will not have to wear it that long. I look forward to talking to you all soon - thanks - Kristi Gunnar - 6 1/2 mos - Hanger Helmet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Kristi, Hey there and welcome to the group. My son is 7 1/2 months old and getting the Doc band next week. Yeah, you are not that far from me. I am off of 160 in the Hamilton Green subdivision. Glad to see your son is doing good so far. I am not that familiar with the Hanger Helmet, but I hope it has great success for you son.
