Guest guest Posted August 13, 2002 Report Share Posted August 13, 2002 Taryn - He is 11 months old. He has been resolved since May. We were lucky to have had Karmel Ross (KKR) as his PT. He wasn't born with tort, as you may have read in my post about the Cleveland Clinic about an hour or two ago. Tort is pretty stubborn thing to get rid of. Even when he had full ROM and the tilt was gone, he still had to work on reaching high with his left arm. I was afraid he was never going to have 100% function, but let me assure you that he is a little hellion now.
