An Update on the helmet...

Justin continues to do VERY well with his helmet. He tolerates it like a champ even with the heat that we've been having and with his teeth. They say that when the kiddos are teething there is a lot of change and growth. This has certainly been true with Justin and his head is changing all the time and continually progressing. For the next few weeks we'll have to be there weekly instead of everyother week. At today's visit we asked what the thoughts were on whether he'd have to wear it all day during the summer and the hope is that he WON'T!!!! His orthotist said that he will probably only be in it 23 hours a day for another month or so and then just at nights!! This is super exciting for us!! The other good news was that after having Ryan scanned again the thought is that he too has made really nice progress without a helmet and that he will most likely not need one!!
