Leaving for TX
Hi. I just wanted to say we are leaving for TX early tomorrow for the mod quad on Wednesday. Jack is almost 19 months and this will be his first surgery. Any luck, prayers, thoughts, etc., would be appreciated. Thank you. Andrea.

- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: I am ROBPI, global injury, Horner's Syndrome. No surgery but PT started at 2 weeks old under the direction of New York Hospital. I wore a brace 24/7 for the first 11 months of my life. I've never let my injury be used as an excuse not to do something. I've approach all things, in life, as a challenge. I approach anything new wondering if I can do it. I tried so many things I might never have tried, if I were not obpi. Being OBPI has made me strong, creative, more determined and persistent. I believe that being obpi has given me a very strong sense of humor and compassion for others.

- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: Hi! I am Laura, the mom of Tyler, who has a ROBPI. I've been a member of this site since 1998 and owe a great deal to the wonderful people in the UBPN community who have helped us along the way get what we needed to get done for Tyler. Tyler is now 14 years old and in the 9th grade. He's a super bright kid and loves his video games. Tyler had the mod quad surgery with Dr. Shenaq shortly before he passed. That was his first and only surgery. Now that he is older he is requesting additional surgery. He'd like to be able to supinate. Our goal is for Summer 2013.

I wish the best for you and your family. I know this time is very stressful, my son just turned one and we were on a plane 2 days later for his Mod Quad surgery. I just took him out of his splint a week ago. It was the best thing we ever did. He is now able to bring his arm completely over his head and crawl around. Best of luck, we are here for you...

They have a library on the top floor where you can go on the internet for free and keep us posted on how he is doing. There are plenty of toys and videos for him to watch. You can even use one of their wagons and take him around to see things for the kids. It's really nice there....
