My 6 year old daughter is schelduled to have the same surgery on March 11! As far as I understand it has a very good success rate with children because of their ability to teach their brains new stuff! I wish your daughter luck.

hi... this is one of the procedures that was done for my daughter's second surgery. At the hospital she went to - Texas Childrens - they called it the Mod Quad. She was in the SOL splint.
I have it all written up in her website...

If you are going to TCH - then I also have a great page called What To Expect On The Day Of Surgery.
If you have any other questions or just want to share or get support - come to the General Board, where there are mostly parents with injured children there. There's a wonderful group of participants on the message boards here.
take care and I hope the surgery goes well,
