Guest guest Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 Hello Maureen, Thanks so much for your upbeat response! We went for our consultation today for the DOC band. Up to this time my doctor and my PT have been telling us that Isabelle has a mild case of plagio. But, today the P.T. in Cleveland...I believe her name is ...says she is moderate measuring at 20 mm. Needless to say, my husband and I were a little saddened, but optimistic and are planning on casting next Saturday. I must admit the drive was long, but we are hoping it all goes well. So how is Tommy doing? How is sleeping going? Any red marks? Thanks so much for all your help and advice!
