Hello All~
Tomorrow I will find out weather or not Emily will need to have a helmet made for her.... She has an appontment to see an orthopedic tomorrow afternoon. I guess they will be scanning her head to see where the flat spots are and if it is severe enough to need to be fitted for a helmet. She not only has hydronephrosis but toricollis (a head tilt) as well, which causes her head to be somewhat mis-shaped on one side. Has anyone ever had experience with this before? I have heard that if one is needed that they cost around $3,000 and that most insurances don't cover them, since they are mostly for cosmedic reasons.
