Guest guest Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Hi Marcy- I looked at Greta's new photos and I can see why you are still concerned. I really thought her head was looking better too, when you posted pictures a while back, so I was surprised to see in these pictures that there is still definite flattening on both sides, with more on the right. I think you're definitely doing the right thing by seeking another opinion. Please keep us posted on the latest diagnosis. Good luck!
