Guest guest Posted May 28, 2002 Report Share Posted May 28, 2002 : Of course I remember you! I am so happy to hear from you again, especially with such great news! I'm glad Kai's head is improving as well as his assymetries . It's good to hear he is able to wear the band for a longer period of time finally, even though it's not 23 hrs! As long as you've seen improvement, that's wonderful! Thanks so much for your good update, I have been wondering about Kai's progress. Keep us updated. Debbie Abby's mom DOCGrad MI > Hi everybody!
