Re: botox

How long has the recovery lasted. It has been suggested for my daughter as well.

I have heard more opinions that it doesn't last it is helps at all.


I would love to hear your story as we might be looking into it again this year.

Re: mediator

We had a mediator and I would recommend doing that. You don't have to agree but it is a good idea. A mediator is a neutral third party.

Make sure to have your attorney w/you.

Re: IT'S A DONE DEAL!!

Andrea from KC Childrens Mercy is excellent and we have gone to her tons of times. She is very much aware of this injury.

Re: Lawsuit Phases/Stages

We almost gave up on ours. But through the grace of God we found a great attorney. Don't give up hope but realize that there is a time limit to file.

What state do you give birth in?

We settled this Thursday and I have to go back and see the judge w.in a month.

Alaina had the 3 D catscan and did not have to be put to sleep. She was a very brave little girl who was scared but did not move. She got candy afterwards!

the right thing by Alaina. It was a tough decision but from what I understand lawsuits w/brachial plexus injuries are hard to win.

I pray that I made the right decision. Of course is it not enough but it is something for her future.

Its been awhile. We had depositions in TX

last week. I am wiped out. A lawsuit is never something to into eyes wide shut. I knew that to begin with.

Today I seem to be more stressed out. I am doing this for my baby now almost 3 years old.

)Please think of us as we go through this.
