RE: Update on Jake-We're going for it!

Good luck. My son was 15 mm off and saw almost full correction. He is only 7 months and was banded at 4 months so different situation in terms of timing. We loved Cranial Tech and found them to be super nice and professional. Good luck and I am sure you will see some correction.

it's just a matterof how much. They spoke in really positive terms and were reallynice to me and Jake, so I feel really comfortable with the idea ofgoing with the band at this point, and going with them as theprovider.I was especially glad to hear that she thought we could even improvehis ear assymmetry. His assymmetry measurements for both his headand his ears were 15 mm. As most of you know, 2-4 mm isconsidered "normal," so he is definitely on the high end ofmoderate. I think I would be thrilled if we could just get it to atleast 10 mm. Do you think that's a realistic/modest expectation athis age?In any case, he's going to be casted on Monday, so now I'm reallyanxious to get the process started for sure. I'll keep you posted! in Raleigh(mom to Jake 16.5 m - tort resolved, plagio, future DOCBand wearer)

Congrats on making your decision. Be sure to let us know how Monday goes.

That's great!!! Congrats! Your situation is so similiar to mine...and I wish Jake the best! Keep us posted! I think that it is a realistic expectation especially if they catch a growth spurt! Good Luck on Monday!
