Guest guest Posted August 8, 2002 Report Share Posted August 8, 2002 - My understanding is that the banding will correct the ears. isn't banded yet. I have been fighting the " anti-band " crowd for months, but may just have my script by the end of next week. I am so grateful for everyone here - all the support and info because I am sure I would have given in to the " banding is a waste of time and money " crowd long ago!

Guest guest Posted August 8, 2002 Report Share Posted August 8, 2002 Good for you Kristi - I wish I had listened to my instincts when Kayleigh was still young enough - by the time I did something she was 14 months and it was a 5 month battle to get to a neuro surgeon. She saw him at 19 months and he was so mad at all the other docs cause he would have probably been able to band her still at 14 months he said. Good luck in your struggle - it is worth it!! - > - > > My understanding is that the banding will correct the ears. > isn't banded yet.
