Hi Kristy-

Congratulations! I know it's been a long road for you.

As you know, Jake graduated at 24 months from his 2nd DOCBand and

still had a slight flat spot (smaller than when we started, but

still there), and his right lamboid suture was fusing so there was

actually kind of a dent across the right side of the flat spot from

the suture (which made the flat spot appear worse than it was).

Well, I just noticed last week, that the dent doesn't seem quite as

pronounced, sort of like it's popping out or whatever the case may

be. I'm thinking (but not getting my hopes up too high at this

point), that maybe it is improving somewhat as he continues to grow.

He's almost 2.5 now, so we definitely have a lot of growing to do,

but at this point, I'm hopeful that at least if that suture line

pops out some it will at least even out his flat spot, even if it

never goes away completely. Anyway, that's just what I've seen

recently. Who knows what will happen from here.

Hope you post pictures! Take care!

Thanks ,

We are so happy to be done. It was a long road- but so worth it. I

am very pleased with the results That is great to hear about

Jake's little head too. I hope the same for Zach- but I do think

that I see it more because I know what I am looking for. I do not

think anyone else would notice the " plagio " shape from the top of

his head either.

God Bless!
