<t>As you know, none of the other docs perform the triangle tilt surgery. They have not been convinced of it's success rate as yet. I can't wait to see research and see how much things change after the procedure to see if it really is as great as it has been spoken of! Could be a great thing, we jus...

I wish this study came out a few years ago... it will be interesting to see how this works! This is pretty exciting stuff! Thanks for sharing this Allison!

<t> I think that you really must talk to your therapist and your child's other doctors about both E-stim and "Encouragement" therapy. We do e stim regularly, but for our child, restraint would be extremely cruel. Our child has so little use of the affected arm that he would not be able to do ANYTHIN...

<t>This is (usually) a great place to share feelings and gather information. There are people here who are very knowledgable. There is actually a surgeon in from Texas that will be in NC this weekend. His name is Dr. Saleh Shenaq. He is truly a wonderful man and a great asset to the Brachial Plexus ...
