Guest guest Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 Everything I just wrote simply disappeared.... Anyway, to be short, since I'm now short on time. I know, ee.... I mean my rational mind knows. It's just Gabe was born with two idiopathic, congenital defects (he also had prematurely fused sutures in his skull) along with some minor hydronephrosis. I guess I'm just paranoid that I have bad genes... (Craniosynostosis has the exact same statistics as clubfoot) I was so shell-shocked when he was born --- I didn't know about his skull although it was , in hindsight, pretty apparent in U/S. Now, I'm terrified all the time about safety stuff and Gabe... I so want to chill out and let him be a normal kid... Which he pretty much is now -- despite a few gaping holes in his skull(which are supposed to fill back in by the time he's two). Anyway, I just don't know if I KNEW either of these two things would affect my next child if I'd have the personal strength to decide to do it all over again. But I didn't mean to turn this into a " me " email anyway:) I just wanted to tell you that you are very brave and strong. If any child was goign to be born with clubfeet anywhere in the world --- this one has gotten very lucky having you for a mom. --------------------------------- Yahoo!
