RE: DOCband interview - KERRY

June 7, 2002

Hi Kerry!

That's so neat! I think it's great they are doing that because I know a lot

of people need to know more about this and that there are solutions.

I wish we could have visited one more time before I headed back to work.

I start on Tuesday.

's birthday is on Monday too! He's getting to be such a big boy. Today

when I dropped him off at the dayhome, he didn't cry! I'm so proud of him.

Then I got in the car and I cried. It's so silly! I miss him every day,

and now that he's settled in there I wish even more that I didn't have to go

back to work.

Anyway...nuff about that. Please take care, and hopefully we can get

together for a visit before you head south.

Subject: DOCband interview

Hi everyone

Just to let you know Dylan and myself were interviewed/video at the

Childrens Hospital here in Calgary. They videoed Dylan having his bi-weekly

check up and showed his 2 headsicles. Then i was asked questions about

Dylan's treatment and how i personally felt about it all. I mentioned this

support group and how i am calm about it all now but was very nervous at

the

beginning and i also said how i would have apprieciated knowing about

repostioning and plagio from the start. The video will be done in about 2

months time with editing. This video will go out to doctors offices and

well-baby clinics and its not to promote the DOCband its for prevention but

to shown moms that something can be done if needed and to give reassurance

from a moms own experience.

Dylan cried on it!! He also decided to throw his milk around!! Never mind!!

Take care everyone
