Re: Intro...Here we Go Again!

Hi Ann Maire:

Thanks for the warm welcome. I live near State College, so we can't

go to Pittsburgh. Walter (the first one with plagio)did have Terry

Stock as his orthotist, small world! Terry was the one who was there

the day they molded his head and was there when we were done. Though,

we had a helmet, no open top for us! We got lucky with Terry, as he

also came to State College every two weeks to the Penn State sports

clinic. So, instead of having to go to Hershey every two weeks, we

would just go into State College. Terry was AWESOME, and Walter

kinda liked him too. Our experience in general was good, I just wish

we could go back to Hershey.

Don't let the plagio stop you from having another child! If I could

do it all over again I would! Although, I would have added extra

padding to the swing, as I think that's the culprit in our house.

Both boys were/are addicted to the swing!

Thanks again for the welcome!

son wore a STARband for approx. 8 mos. (he graduated in

March '02). He got his band through Union Orthotics and Prosthetics

in Pittsburgh (a little too far from you I suppose). I thought

everyone there was just great. I was just wondering - 's

orthotist name was Terry Stock. He came to Union from Hershey

Medical Center. By any chance did he happen to you work with you on

your first son? He said he had approx. 20 years experience with

cranial remolding devices. We really liked him and thought he was

very knowledgeable and experienced.

anything, at least you know what to expect.

I worry about having another child with tort/plagio. But that will

not stop me from having another - if it happens - I will deal with it.
