When I went to the hospital to give birth to my daughter they told me I wasn't allowed to tape it OR take pictures. My video camera was on the table and my sister actually turned it on and it was angled PERFECTLY!! You could see the whole birth...I am so thankful she did that too because of what hap...

I know how unrealistic it is that I wanted her arm to be 100% after the surgery. I was just hoping is all! I appreciate all of your responses.

He will monitor your daughter every 3 to 6 months and determine whether or not he will do surgery when shes close...

Dr. Kozin at Shriners Hospital in Philly is AMAZING!! he did my daughters surgery and I will be forever grateful!!

My daughter just had the tendon transfer surgery on Oct 26th. I am a worried mother as well and was freaking out about it but it went AMAZING! My daughter bounced back the same day and never once complained about the cast. She just got her cast off on Monday and the incision is not even noticeable. ...
