Christi!

OMG - I'm sooo happy for you. I cannot believe they finally paid for

a band! This is very promising for so many others insured with

Tricare :). Congratulations!

As for the 2nd band, if they recommend getting a 2nd one, then you

might as well go for it. You've come this far, so you might as well

continue if needed. I understand how more than ready you are to be

done with it, esp. with your new pool & this heat, but if Mya could

get more rounding with a 2nd band, then what the heck right?

Thanks so much for your great news. Now I'm hoping to see a " Mya

graduated " post in a couple of wks!

's specialist was on the fence about a second band but I opted

for it because his ears will still off and his facial asymmetry was

still visible. I was very happy with my choice. started his

second band at 14 months and went through some big growth spurts. It

was much easier getting insurance to cover the second band after

winning my appeal on the first one. We just had to provide

measurements that showed two of his measurements were still over 6mm

off. As far as the pool, maybe you could do her one hour out each

day during pool time.

Yeah i am ready for Mya to be out of the band but if she has to be in

it then we will live. I just want to do what is best for her. So we

will see what the doctor says on July 11. I just know its going to

take forever for that date to come!
