Guest guest Posted June 9, 2001 Report Share Posted June 9, 2001 Gloria! I am soooooo happy for you- you deserve every wonderful thing that happens to you!!! I see from Dave's post you have a special place in many of our hearts. I wonder if you have any clue how much your friendship means to me as well as so many others. I know that I posted how great you were a few days after my MGB. (Bear with me good people of this list.) You all know how I get when I am emotional! Gloria, I will never forget how sweet you were to me in the days and months leadng to the date of my surgery, you will always have a special place in my heart and in my life because- -having just had your surgery I couldn't have gotten along without your great advice -helping me fight the demons at BCBS of NC -the sippy cup and Chap Stick I so desperately needed -helping me get up and got to the bathroom for the first time (helping me in the bathroom) we won't go into that and gross out the poor folks on this list -for catching me when I went to the floor -for sitting there in my room with my family and taking care of them too -for babysitting me while they all left to get something to eat -for sitting there with Stan late into the night so he wouldn't feel alone while I was enjoying my pain pump -for holding the basin for me to throw up into-because I just don't do well with anesthesia I could sit here all night and type for hours about the things you did for me not only that night but the things you continue to do. I was so glad you called the other night- I miss you and I love you!! Mom and Stan say hi! They can't wait to see you either! Take care!

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Welcome to C.A.S.T. Gloria! There are a few parents on this group getting their juveniles casted. So far, they seem to be happy with results. I'm sure you'll be hearing their stories, soon. ISOP can send you a video/info on early treatment for progressive infantile scoliosis w/ POP jackets. If your interested, please e-mail me privately with the address that you would like this info sent to. If after viewing you decide that would like to keep this video (for reference to, or to pursue treatment) you can send ISOP $15.00...If not, please send back to me, so it can be recirculated to other interested parents. Sincerely, HRH Re: s Results Hi, I am new to casting procedures. What type of problems did have with the last cast? My 8 yo sone has had scoliosis sincehe was 4. Rod surgery is in his future but I just starting hearing about castings. I am interested inlearning more about it. Thanks, gloria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
