<t>Hi My daughter just had the caps surgery last monday and I wasn't expecting the surgery, so I didn't have any clothes for her splint. But once I got home I also bought the cotton shirts, that just stretched right over the brace, even with the support bar. I bought 2 sizes larger than what she wea...

<t>My daughter Mehgan 3, will be going to Houston August 4th for a pronator transfer to her left arm, of course OBPI. Dr. Shenaq will be doing the surgery and I have faith in him,What worries me is that her elbow is also dislocated the type that is not recommended to do anything with, right now duri...

<t>I clearly think there should be a book out there from the mother's point of view. When my daughter was born it took them 2 days to figure out what was wrong with her. She was born in San Antonio, TX just a few hours from Houston and NOT ONE DOCTOR told me about Houston. It was not until I spent m...

<t>Mehgan is 3years old, we can supinate her left forearm, but she can not do it on her own. She has a radial head dislocation in her elbow as well. Dr.Shenaq and Dr. Nelson both said that it would give her more function in her arm. I hope so, but with these injuries it seems like one thing after an...

Hi does anyone have Dr. Nath's or Lisa Davis' e-mail address, I need to e-mail them on Mehgan's arm. I need to make them aware of the pain she's having in her elbow. Thanks

<t>Just wondering how did you get to see so many Doc, did they mention anything to you about the growth plate? She has been to the Shriner's where they seem to just wait until it gets bad. Then I took her to Chapel Hill and Wake Forest here in North Carolina and then they wanted to focus more on her...

<t>Mehgan has seen 3 pediatric ortho doc about her arm and all of them just tell me they cann't do anything right now until it causes her alot of pain, but it's the way my mom put it this little girl has been in pain her whole life so how much is too much for her, I believe that's posterior I'm not ...

<t>My daughter just had her Mod Quad performed by DR. Nath and with that she's been doing well, but her pain is coming from her elbow that is dislocated has been since birth and of course the Docs tell me that it's no big thing that this is common, Mehgan has a hard time in the mornings when we take...

<t>Hi Carron I know what you are feeling, Mehgan is doing well, with her splint and I don't let it stop us from going out and we get alot of questions, sometimes I don't say anything depending on how rushed I am but I mainly tell them that it's a birth injury and she now was able for surgery to help...
