Mom who wrote Perspective email...

March 15, 2001

Hello All! I just wanted to explain what happened to

my " Perspective " email. After I read what I had written I was so

terribly worried that it came across condescending which was NOT my

intention at all - so I deleted it. I thought that some may think

that I'm saying that no plagiocephaly parents should complain at all

or be worried or be sad. That was sooooo not my intention. I'm a

new member and I didn't want to upset anyone with my thoughts and get

started on the wrong foot. I completely share in all of your worries

about the condition and I completely sympathize with people that have

to deal with the many frustrations that go along with it. I am very

lucky in that 's condition was diagnosed early (4 mos) by his

ped and so far the helmet is really doing the job.

All I know is that sometimes when I'm really down about their eczema,

my husband reminds me about how healthy they both really are and how

some people are dealing with things much worse and it really really

makes me feel lucky and blessed to have them generally healthy. That

was my intention - to just let you know that when you really get down

about the condition and allllll of it's frustrations, just look at

your child's face (and that killer smile with that helmet on!) and

know how blessed you are to have a healthy beautiful child.

I hope this posting better reflects my thoughts. Sorry for the

confusion.
