Guest guest Posted July 16, 2002 Report Share Posted July 16, 2002 Christy, I'm sitting here in shock!! He is totally wrong! If you can't see it across the room???? OMG! Can he do that? Can he deny your daughter treatment because you decide (if you do) to band her? Isn't that almost like discrimination? Would he not treat a child that had braces? It is YOUR right to choose the treatment your child receives. How is it any of his business? I can't believe he had the nerve to say that to you! > Oh the joys of parenting.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2002 Report Share Posted July 16, 2002 That is so great about the head flopping! (smiles) Logan will do that sometimes too. He'll look soooo uncomfortable, but I say " don't touch him! He's turned to the left!! " -/Logan 5months PA > Oh the joys of parenting.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2002 Report Share Posted July 16, 2002 Hi Christy: What an idiot. My osteo would NEVER say anything like that - just goes to show there are bad apples in every bunch... By the way, is nitwit a CRANIAL osteopath, or does he specialize in a different part of the body? Just interested... Run, don't walk, to someone else. Never give this guy a dime more or a minute more of your precious resources. Kind regards, > Oh the joys of parenting.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2002 Report Share Posted July 16, 2002 Christy: That's great to hear Abby was lying the other way in her car seat today! That's a great sign & step in the right direction! That's quite the comment your osteopath gave you about diagnosing plagio - sorry but that's another one I had to laugh at. Ya just gotta wonder sometimes about these " drs " huh????

Guest guest Posted July 17, 2002 Report Share Posted July 17, 2002 Christy, If you don't mind me asking, Who was the cranial therapist that you saw? I also see a PT who is also a osteopath in France and practices in NY. I have seen amazing results with my son and the therapy even after 2 sessions. If you want further info e-mail me at multiag@.... Anastasia iamaltobum <iammichelle@...> wrote: That is so great about the head flopping! (smiles) Logan will do that sometimes too.
