Re: follow-up and Sleep Position Questions

[Guest guest]

Thanks for the update on . I am glad to hear you've been in

touch with Cedars Sinai & have the ball rolling! As for

repositioning, have you looked into our Bookmarks section of our

group? There are several repositioning device links there that might

work for . I unfortunately didn't have any luck with Abby &

the wedge type products. She was stubborn & always wiggled out too,

and she didn't even have tort..

Keep up your good work. Let us know when you are able to go to PT &

Cedars Sinai.
