Guest guest Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 I am glad to hear how well everything went. Thanks for sharing. Have fun decorating. Angie The DOC band Well Jayden got his new helmet from CT in Arizona! They are great! We fly out there with Angel flights. I'm so greatful to them because without them I would not be able to do this! He went for his Eval on Jan 15th. CT asked if they could keep his old Hanger band to show patients how much heavier it bulkier it was. They took lots of pics with and without the helmet and I was shocked to see how the old helmet basically just sat on his head like a jello mold. Basically it was like saying this is what your head should look like fill it....and it wasnt holding the width at all. GRRRR! Luckily Hanger refunded my deductible and voided the claim. They STILL didnt see anything wrong with how we were treated by not returning calls and violating HIPPA to email me! But oh well...their poor service led us elsewhere and I'm very happy. Anyway we picked up our helmet the following Monday. Perfect fit. We have had it one week and five days and have had one adjustment and so far so good! No issues at all except a tiny bit of heat rash on the forehead area, so we have been using cortisone for that! I'm very happy so far and I wish I would have realized I could have pulled this off sooner! Its definately alot of work for fly out Sunday afternoon. Have an appt on Monday and fly back Tuesday morning. I have to work Three 12 hour days to make up the time and still work 10-12 hours Saturday, but anything for my son right now! Now I just gotta work on decorating it! I love the CT calander there are so many cute Ideas in there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
