Silly Head!

i have so many people that love me! my mommy and daddy have gotten lots of questions about my "helmet" so i will explain it a little in this blog. we had to go to the cleveland clinic on valentine's day for a cat scan for my head. the doc's thought i might have cranialsynostosis. i am sure i spelled it wrong, but i am just a kid so who cares. luckily, the results were negative so i won't have to have surgery on my head to prevent brain damage...(for a week, my family thought i might have to...can you imagine how scared they were?)

fast forward to today, my peditrician wanted me to see a specialist...and that specialist wanted me to see yet another specialist. i have what is called plagiocephaly and some scaphocephaly which has to do with the shape of my head. i also demonstrate a metopic ridge and to prevent future head, jaw and other problems, i will wear a DOC band helmet. i will be sure to show off my new helmet when i get it.

it'll be a few weeks but i'll write all about the casting they do on my head to get a mold of my silly head shape. i'm the cutest kid there ever was!

love, tj (ps...check out my new shirt auntie carecare!) : )
