Guest guest Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 Hi - Well a HUGE congrats to , for making that important milestone. I remember when I had to wait until " next year " to MAYBE be big enough for the rides I wanted to go on...and for some of them, " next year " was actually MANY years away <wink>. There are still a handful of roller coasters who have a 55 " height requirement...I'm 54.75 " tall so I can't go on...though fortunately, I don't like those kinds of coasters anyway <G>. And when we went to Disneyland Paris about 8 years ago, I had to stand on my toes (at age 30!!!) to make it onto Space Mountain there!!! -Sharon- Just an RSS kid who grew up > Hi all well we had 's Endo appoint ment!!

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 A trick I found..Stuff your shoes with Napkins..... My friend did this for her son who is GHD, before she knew he was, when he missed Space Mountian by 1/4 of an inch... I don't really agree with it.... but let's face you are an adult...

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 That is cute, I have been to Disney World in Florida and it was hard for me when I was growing up to, I am just now 5 ft and my mom is 4ft11!! I would like to take but he is a wild one and he would get mad if he couldn't ride so we will wait. I really would love to come up with an idea for a little people disney world like just for little one's and adults.They could make the riddes just a smaller version! Well I will let you know how it goes!! Thanks for your reply! > > Hi all well we had 's Endo appoint ment!!

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 - Hi Jodie, hey thanks for the tip I have to use that line to already they think I don't know when I gave birth to my son! Go figure or sometimes I don't say anything and they just think he is a genious:0 We were at the New Children Hospital at Vanderbuilt in Nashville T.N. and we were doing a tour and we entered into a play room and it was for only 5-11 years old and they said he couldn't come in,said we were just looking she said o.k. but their is another play unit for littler kids, I said he is 5, then she had to ask " how old are you, " He held up 5 fingers, I ended up telling here he had RSS Drarfism but she looked at me like Duh o.k. she was just a teenage volunter so probably didn't have a clue, Well keep up the prayers for growth!! I told him today if he weigh 30 we were going to Chuck E Cheese but it was olny 28 pounds like almost last year. Maybe not to long now(we will endup there i am sure, he is just so darn cute and spoiled UGH!!!)
