Re: Free Altered Clothes for Post-Surgery Girl

My daughter was 9 years old when she wore these clothes. I wanted to let anyone know that I have digital photos of these clothes that I would be happy to share. Email me at wstorms@comcast.net if interested.

Re: Free Altered Clothes for Post-Surgery Girl

<t>I'm so sorry that I don't have any digital photos of my daughter in her splint/clothes! We didn't have a digital camera at that time. I can tell you that the long sleeve of the injured arm was cut off and made into short-sleeve. Then the shirt was cut from the armpit to the waist and she reseamed...

Re: 5th grade science fair project

<t>How interesting...my fifth grade daughter just did the same thing! Her school had a science fair and her display (which was for a school grade) was on the brachial plexus and her life with Erb's Palsy. Although she has always described her injury to her class in the beginning of each school year ...

Re: Piano Lessons

<t>My daughter, age 10, has taken piano lessons for about 1 1/2 yrs. She is an unbelievably accomplished pianist. It is truly amazing to hear her play. Her piano teacher said that she has surpassed students that have been playing for 4 yrs. Perhaps this is a God-given gift of hers, who knows. But it...

Re: Texas Children's Hosp - Dr Shenak

Dr. Shenaq has worked with my daughter (age 10) since birth, and has performed four surgeries on her, including the mod quad. We live in Pennsylvania. While all children's injuries differ, our daughter has had wonderful results from these surgeries. He is a very good doctor. Best wishes.

Re: Pa. Lawyers

Hi, we live in Northeast PA and used a firm in Harrisburg, PA, Angino & Rovner. I believe they are ranked within the top 10 in the U.S. for personal injury firms (don't quote me on that!). We had very favorable results, although we did have a videotape.

Good luck.

Re: Art Exhibit a Success

Thank you for organizing the event! My daughter submitted a piece of artwork and was so excited to hear that someone bid on it and took it home. I wish I weren't on the other side of the U.S. and could have attended!
