Hi guys, haven't been around lately. Hope everyone had wonderful holidays! I need to get in touch with a few friends around here- sorry I have been so out of touch! We are 3 months away from our trial date, our lawsuit is going so well!! (thank you, God). Dr. Nath said Logan's last video looked really good BUT that the only thing she may need is some sort of muscle "loosening" surgery, a "Z" shape incision in a muscle on her affected arm to "loosen" the Mod Quad a little, that it may have been too tight (this is what little I remember from talking to Lisa Thompson about it about a month ago). Lisa said it is very uncommon that the Mod Quad is too tight but that it has happened. Logan is still unable to touch her belly or left hip/side or put her hand behind her back since the Mod Quad, things she could do before. Dr. Nath said hopefully continued therapy would help but I am NOT seeing a difference and how long should I wait? Has anyone else had this experience?? I want to hopefully get this taken care of before we head into a long trial, plus, if she needs another surgery, we need to know now. Looking forward to hearing from you guys... Thanks and Happy New Year!! Natalie
