Guest guest Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 Hi Kathy, My DS is getting his starband tomorrow. How old is if you do not mind me asking? My son will be 10 months as of the 9th.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Hi Kathy- I'm sure you ARE seeing an improvement. It can happen really quickly which is so promising after going through the stress of deciding to band, insurance, etc. Glad to hear she's doing so well! Definitely keep us updated!

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Hi Kathy, I'm so glad you're all ready seeing improvement and things are going well. got his Starband Tuesday from Northeast Orthotics. I think they are so great. This helmet is so different than his first helmet and the orthotist is wonderful. I never had anything explained to me with the first one. I'll have to post some pictures of in his new helmet. Well, I have to take some first! He's only up to 4 hours at a time today. Hope things continue to go well! > > is doing sooo great in the Starband. It is pulling ever so > slightly on her left eye area but that is the only problem so far.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Yes they great with tons of info. I can;t imagine not getting all that info. So glad you having a good experience with Northeast. Next week she gets her first rescan so I am anxious to see how's she improving. Good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Sorry it took so long to reply but I wanted to say that I was glad to get to meet you and see at the office last week. How is he doing in the StarBand. Didn't seem to be cramping his style at all that day! > > > > is doing sooo great in the Starband.
