Re: Re: Dr. Durkin in Hawaii?

Yep, he's fine. Craniosynostosis is premature fusing of the skull sutures. It

requires the suture to be reopened surgically. It was done when Gabe was 6

months old. Today it's not an issue.... not really. He may need touch up surgery

when he's five or so, but that's nearly three years away, so we don't think

about it. Anyway, I'm sure it must be the same DR. I wasn't quite sure how to

spell her name... Anyway, if it's her, she'll remember us. It was 2004. I had

Antibody-E issues early in pregnancy, and Gabe was born with bilateral clubfoot

and sagittal synostosis. She should remember. Anyway, thanks a lot. Things were

so hectic when we left Guam, and she really did seem interested in Gabe's

progress. She was really mad she didn't get to deliver him. Well, thanks a lot!

I've never heard of craniosynotosis. I hope that all is well with

your son.
