<r>David,<br/> <br/> Hi! We've been using Kenesio tape on our daughter for a few months now and have seen some great results. We had some problems with skin irritation in the beginning as well. I don't know that much about using the Milk of Magnesia to improve removal. Of course, it couldn't hurt to...

<t>Karen,<br/> <br/> One post is on page 11 titled "IEP ?" and another good one is on page 23 titled "help with school PT." Both have some really good ideas (I've been writing things down for future reference). Rowan is only 6 months right now, but I guess you could say I like to be prepared for eve...

<t>Layne,<br/> <br/> I am so sorry to hear about your son.<br/> The muscle transfer surgeries that the doctor is speaking of are often called "secondary" surgeries. I don't have any experience with them myself, as yet, but there are many families on this board who have lots of experience with them. ...

<t>Wouldn't that be fabulous to just regrow a muscle...it is so frustrating that even if you can get the nerve damage fixed sometimes it just isn't enough... <br/> <br/> I agree with Francine about anything being possible.

<r>Staci,<br/> <br/> Hi! A great new place just opened here in downtown Houston last month. It's called the Downtown Aquarium. There is a great aquarium exhibit, a train that goes through a shark tunnel (really cool), a carousel, a ferris wheel, several restaurants (kinda pricey), etc... There's a g...

<r>Thank you all for your words of wisdom and experience. I'm so glad this place is here, where people understand <br/> <br/> Francine & Karen, you are so right...you just can't ever know what another person is going through. I have really tried to be alot more sensitive with what I say to other...

<r>The months since my daughter Rowan (LOBPI) was born have been the best and the worst months of my life. I know that all of you will understand that and I guess that is why I'm posting this here. I feel as though I need someone to validate my feelings. She is 5 months old today, born on 9-11, and ...

<t>Hello everyone. My name is Stacey and my daughter Rowan has LOBPI. She is now 3 months old. She seems to be doing pretty well...she began to get anti-gravity biceps function back at 10 weeks and it keeps getting stronger and stronger. At first, I thought that meant she would recover fully. I had ...
