Update and Toronto Sick Kids contact info

[Guest guest]

Darcy,

Wow - sounds like things are rolling right along now. That's great! The

information you provided will surely come in handy at some point in time for

other members of the group so I thank you for that. It's good to hear that

the specialist was so confident that the sutures were open - the CT scan will

probably just confirm what you already know!

Good luck with the repositioning - I hope you see some GREAT correction

between now and then!

Hi, i just got back from a morning spent at Sick Kids Cranio dept

having my daughter Madeleine checked out. They were excellent to say

the least.

Dr. checked out her head, and let us look at x-rays that our

pediatrician had ordered a couple of weeks ago. He was 95%

confident that the lamdoid sutures are open but still recommended

having a CT scan which we have scheduled for a month from now. We

also had a physio look at her who recommended repositioning

techniques as well as a eye exam to check for inter-cranial pressure.

Once the CT scan confirms that the sutures are ok we can decide to go

ahead with the helment therapy. Hopefully we might see results

between now and then just from repositioning.

Feels good to have done something! Our pediatrician had just told us

to wait another month or so when we last spoke with her two days ago!

For all those in the Toronto area, her is the contact information i

used to get an appointment for Madeleine without a referral:
