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.

I think you would get many more responses on the tbpi/message board. Most folks who visit this board are birthinjured obpi/adults who have not had surgery and the experience with the medical help you need for your son. The tbpi/message board has a large group of people with current medical information... They can really help with the emotional needs of a newly injured person. You and your family need all the support you can get at this time.

I wish your family and your son well.
