Huge Progress!!

Let me start by staying that we woke up on time and Cashs appointment was great. 


I think he looks so cute in his stocking cap.  Mr. D put this cap on so he could get a nice smooth image of Cashs head. I still was unable to get a picture of Cash in the scanner. I hold his hands while Mr. D runs the machine. 


Cash played while we waited for Mr. D to run all the numbers and to show us the comparison picture.  I was shocked. 


It was so much better than I thought it was going to be.  The red is Cashs head at the initial scan and the blue is from the scan today. His asymmetry started at 9.9mm and was 4.3mm today!! That is over 50% improvement.  His cephalic index started at 103% and is now down to 96.6%.  A perfect head has a cephalic index of 80%; a % lower than that is a long/narrow shaped head and a % higher than that is a short/wide shaped head. A few weeks ago Cashs head was finally longer than wide. (Longer being from front to back)  Cashs total head growth since 1/13/14 was 16.2mm. 

Mr. D said he wants to keep Cash in his helmet for another month (thank goodness). He thinks we could see some more growth over the next month and get his numbers down some more. He said that if there was good growth we would continue treatment and if not than Cash will be done on our next visit.  So we have at least one more month. We have been going for visits every 2 weeks and now we will go 4 weeks.

We had lunch at In & Out Burger. Oh how I love an animal style double double.  I had a few guys give me a hard time about his St. Louis Cardnals sticker. Rangers fans are everywhere. ;) 

Cash zonked out on the ride home. I was glad for that. These trips are so hard on him so I was glad he got some good sleep. 


Cash is super excited!! He gets to meet his Aunt Casey & cousin Sebastian tomorrow!!!!! (I'm super excited too!!) 

Again excuse any typos!! ;0)
