United Brachial Plexus Network, Inc.

Rich posted an article written in 1923 and they knew how the injury was caused and also were doing repair then.

So how come so many of us were not properly taken care of ? They even did surgery on some children for nerve repair and knew about nerve regeneration.
I'm am ticked off because if this study and others had been followed, many if not all of us would not be here. They said in the article the children were not sent to specialist in a timely fashion.... Duh... how many today are not sent?

YES YES, Kath I couldn't agree more. I get a little more & more upset every time "Studies" or "Research" questionaires are posted on UBPN (haven't been for a long while now tho') because they don't go anywhere near helping us adults...or children for that matter...for the 6 years i've been "here". If nobody did anything with that report in 1923 to fuel Awareness...choosing to protect Doctor's Amuminity(sp?) over helping children have a better life...This all sure makes me feel hopeless
