Guest guest Posted March 28, 2001 Report Share Posted March 28, 2001 Congratulations! I'm sure Conor's head looks great! Mommy to (DOC band 3-9-01) ----- Original Message ----- From: pettice@... Plagiocephaly Sent: Wednesday, March 28, 2001 9:55 AM Subject: Conor graduated! Hello to all--Conor is now officially a former helmet-wearer! My husband met with the neurosurgeon this morning (my husband is much more in control of his emotions than I am--he's a mathematician and overall a very rational guy--so it was best that I stayed at work).He asked his own questions and read from a two-page list of questionsI'd prepared, and I'm finally satisfied with the answers we've gotten.The uneven height of Conor's frontal bones will become less uneven as Conor's skull bones thicken, the neuro maintains. He also pointed out that the uneven area will fall behind Conor's hairline; right now, it's at his hairline--because he has a baby hairline that will move forward as he gets toddler hair. I'm more or less at peace with this. We got, in the 4 months in the helmet, some nice rounding. I will post photos, probably thisweekend, to show off his last helmet design (my favorite) and his "new" head shape; I'd really appreciate feedback about it. I, too, will stick around to answer questions and help others in any way I can. Being a member of this group over the last four months has been invaluable; I can't say thank you often enough to the manypeople who have, directly and indirectly, helped my family through this emotional time. , Conor's mom, central PA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
