Hello Scoliosis Support Group,
Mariah will begin casting on February 28th - they will change the cast every 2 mos. untill she is 2 then every 3 mos. I have read so many helpful ideas about the casting. I am still really scared to death. My though is of Mariah really just not knowing how to deal with this cast on - I know babies are resiliant and she will adjust - but boy how she loves her baths. I am also gratefull there are others out there for support. I am fortunate enough to lived in Erie, PA & only 1/2 mile from Shriners where they offer this serial casting. Are there others out there who travel far to Erie, Pa or SLC, Utah to receive casting services? Mariah's curve is at 45 degrees and I think it is effecting her respitory system? After she has been laying for a period of time she always wakes up coughing - especially in the mornings! I am currently going through some struggles with Mariah's mom who is currently in Mississippi - I really wish she would come home to be here with her baby through all this - I miss her and also need her. We are traveling to Pittsburgh on the 8th of February so Mariah can get an MRI - please pray for decent weather.
My thoughts and Prayers are with all of you.
Always welcoming your words and advice.
Thank You,
Linda & Mariah
