Hi again,

The Doc said he would lose a bit of strength with lowering his arm, but would be able to probobly raise the arm overhead. then we will do tendon surgery on the lower arm and he won't have to wear the splint, and will have better use of his fingers. By the way I work at Kent State at the Health Center, I would love to get together for a play date with those close by. How 'bout it Andera and Jenny.

Tammie,

I was wondering if I could have the phone number to the BPI clinic at Metro Health. I would like to see if maybe they would write a letter about e-stim and the benefits it has on brachial plexus injuries. Also, I was wondering if maybe we can get together with the kids and talk and have some fun!

Hi,

My daughter just had an MRI and DR. Peljovich in atlanta is recommending tendon transfer surgery for external rotation. I just came across your post and wondered if your son wound up having the surgery? I would appreciate any/all info you could share with me. She is 4 and this would be her first surgery.
