Lauren and I are hoping to attend. We'll be taking the train from Chicago to Albany on Thursday. Anyone else taking the train?

<t>Sounds like some really great recovery starting to take place. <br/> <br/> One place where our Lauren always showed off her early recovery (age 3-5 months) was in the bathtub. I had one of those bathtub sponges that you lay in the tub and lay the baby one. I put it in the tub with a couple inches...

Hi I received some info a few weeks ago about a Michigan start-up support. Unfortunately, I seemed to have misplaced the info. I was wondering if anyone could relay this info to me again! Thanks a bunch! Jess

<t>Nancy, thanks for putting forth the effort to clear this up. Possibly, it's just my concern but I'm glad you're taking the time to help me.<br/> <br/> So you're saying that it is perfectly fine for people to post bad experiences that they've had with bpi related facilities?

I often get discouraged when my fellow "no surgeries to date"ians end up needing surgeries! Sometimes I think that even the milder injuries (such a relati...

<t>Ryan and others,<br/> <br/> Thanks for the replies. Please don't feel that I'm posting to be a bug or get people irritated. This is an honest concern that I have.<br/> <br/> Mostly because I feel that there are people in the bpi community who are "afraid" to post about bad experiences that they h...

<t>Hi, this is a question that arose in my head after reading the recent epic under the "second surgery" post.<br/> <br/> I'm not understanding why UBPN has a the no slander rule. It seems to me that UBPN is in the "getting info out to parents" business, and this business is obviously retarded by pr...

<r>Have a bpi child who have pursued an active exercise/strengthening program between the ages of 4 and 10. I'm especially interested in those kids who have not had any surgical intervention, but I'm sure some of the same issues apply regardless of whether they've had surgery. I would greatly apprec...
