<t>This is the non profit organization that I created to help other children and families that suffer from Brachial Plexus Injuries. I am so thrilled that you found it! We are still a young organization and are trying to raise funds to help people. Any expertise or advice pertaining to fund raising ...

<t>I love this show. I was really impressed because they not only mentioned it, but made it sound like something serious enough that she might want to reconsider the procedure she was about to undergo. I hope that we will hear more things like this in future. It really is a great show, I am hooked!<...

<t>Thanks for the support, Christy. Marnie, I am afraid that you mistook what I was saying. I was in no way being disrespectul towards or judging anyone that has chosen this prodecure for their child. I was under the impression that these boards were a place of learning and growth. The beautiful thi...

<t>I hate to be a naysayer, but it worries me that so many of these children are having this surgery and we have no idea the long term effects because the research hasn't been done long term.

The other BPI specialists are telling patients to slow down with this particular procedure because of the lack of research thus far. We were scheduled to have this procedure done in July, but I didn't feel good about it, ...

<t>We are thinking of seeing him for another opinion. What have your experiences been like with him and also the Shriners Hospital? I am open to ALL feedback. I want to know the good and I am also concerned if anyone has had a negative experience as I don't believe you can make a well informed decis...

Yes, Call Lisa Thompson directly. They will help you. Dr. Shenaq IS performing surgeries. I cannot tell you how happy I am! They are getting their new office squared away. I am pretty sure tight now it is only Dr. Shenaq and Lisa. I hope your son can have his surgery soon!

<t> I have been told by my childs OT to NEVER, under ANY circumstances allow anyone to put a needle in the affected arm or to allow anyone to take bood pressure in that arm either. I am of the opinion that that arm has endured enough trauma, why add more? I would not let anyone come close to my chil...
