<t>Logan is 5 with a ROBPI and he has always seemed overly sensitive to many things. He hates tags on his shirts, seams on socks, and clothes and shoes that are too tight or restrictive. He hates things that are too hot or too cold. He also chews holes in his shirt sleeves on his right arm (right at...

<t>I am glad to hear that your daughter is making progress! We also live in Omaha (Millard area). My son Logan is 5 yrs old and has a right brachial plexus injury. Logan has not needed surgery, but I've heard good things about the Mayo Clinic. We see a specialist here in Omaha, Dr. Ake Nystrom at UN...

My son Logan is 4 months old and ROBPI, so I don't know if I can be of any help with any questions you have, but I'll tell you how it works for us.
