Guest guest Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 Alan, Feel free to e-mail mail off the board if you have local questions (or to give my e-mail to your wife...) - wolfekm@.... Where is the STARband facility that you would use if you went that route? I just looked on their website for you, and there doesn't seem to be a STARscanner facility near us (http://www.orthomerica.com/technology/scan_locations.htm). Don't worry at all if you do have to go the casting route - it's REALLY not that bad - some tears, and maybe some kicking if Chad is like my is, but it's over quickly. If you get to that point, we can give you tips to make it smoother (bottle of juice, binky, a lollipop etc...)

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 Thanks Kerri... I will keep in touch. Only starband place is in NJ. so it doesn't look like we'll go that route. I'm guessing you went to Clinton, CT for your child. That's where we would go. I think the responses I've gotten from this board have moved me in the direction of going for the Docband. Thanks. Have a great weekend. Alan - Chad's Dadshannon152000 <wolfekm@...> wrote: Alan,Feel free to e-mail mail off the board if you have local questions (or to give my e-mail to your wife...) - wolfekm@....

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 Well, hey! Here I was looking forward to some really fun information about alien encounters. Ah well, glad you are doing ok. I'm still battling the Dercum monster, and watching the babies grow. Can you believe the triplets will be a year old in a little over a week? Ron's doing well, his Parkinson's is staying in the background, and he's actually looking forward to playing golf soon. I hope the meds. are keeping you on the upside of down. Spring is coming!

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 Well hey there Judi, I am sorry you're still battling the monster. Hope you have the upper hand. Know I am thinking and praying for you. My gosh, are the triplets really going to be one already? Time sure flies. It also makes me realize how long it's been since I have been here. Great to hear Ron is doing well and will be golfing. I actually golfed in Florida last month for the first time in 3 years. The Remicade has worked real well, knock on wood. In fact, I am glad I'm posting. It made me remember I need my MTX injection. Fun, fun... Yes, Spring is on its way and I cannot wait. Take care of yourself Judi.
