    Default Progress pictures

    I want to share some progress pictures since we are done with helmet therapy. For those of you who don't know our story, Sophie had Endo repair for Sagittal done on 4-16-09 and wore a helmet for 8 months. She is now 1 month helmet free and 9 months post op. I think the change from 6 to 8 months post op is the most obvious and shows the best results. We are really happy with the reults!

    I'm sorry the pictures are so big, I worked with it a long time and could not for the life of me figure out how to make them any smaller.



    This is pre-op
    One day post-op

    One month post-op

    Six months post-op

    Eight months post-op and 1 day helmet free
    Nine months post op and one month helmet free

    Wow, it's amazing the difference. What a beautiful girl. I LOVE the ponytails. Florence still doesn't have enough hair to get a pony like that...

    Wow! Look at her hair now! The pony tail looks so cute! You can't even see the incision!

    She looks great! The birdseye view looks similar to Adam's head now. His surgery was about a month and 1/2 before her surgery, but we had the modified posterior CVR. It's good to know the results seem to be similar. I do notice that Sophia doesn't appear to have the saggi "bump." Thanks for sharing!!!


    Sagittal surgery - 02/26/2009

    Second surgery suggested to correct a bump on the head and fill in soft spots.

    I just saw these on FB. I'm so jealous of her incision : )
    Her head looks fantastic and she's just adorable. You must be loving these helmet free days!
