Anyhow, my husband and I used to go to North Davis a few years back and that is what spurred me on to start reading your story. I've been keeping up since you found out you were preggo...yes, I have finally de-lurked!! I just wanted to tell you a funny story. While I was reading and catching up on your New Years happenings, my 3 year old daughter was sitting next to me AMAZED by the quads. But the funny part was when I clicked to learn more about the cranial bands she saw the picture on the page that comes up and said..."oh, momma, buy me THAT for my birthday!!" SO there you have it....good enough for a 3 year olds birthday present!LOL! They are all beautiful babies!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17577538543909358398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16582505.post-27279770528024908562008-01-08T15:54:00.000-06:002008-01-08T15:54:00.000-06:00not trying to be rude.. just curious.. what is wro...not trying to be rude.. just curious.. what is wrong with the babies' heads? are they mis-shaped or are the measurements of the ears off? just trying to learn... have never known anyone who's needed helmets.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16582505.post-76596475501006405032008-01-07T21:30:00.000-06:002008-01-07T21:30:00.000-06:00I have been keeping up with your blog since the ba...I have been keeping up with your blog since the babies where a few months old.

I usually just lurk but wanted to add in another great experience with the DOC Band. Our youngest had his from 7-11 months and I'm so glad we did it. Our insurance didn't pay and I can't even imagine 4 of them at once! I just wanted to wish you well with the Bands and also fighting your insurance company.<BR/><BR/>beckybAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16582505.post-74675243811921765652008-01-06T21:16:00.000-06:002008-01-06T21:16:00.000-06:00I am a RN in the 5th largest NICU in the US, and I...I am a RN in the 5th largest NICU in the US, and I have seen these used on our unit for some of our chronic patients.

Star Cranial Center of Excellence, http://www.starcranialcenter.com/<BR/><BR/>They use a scanner instead of the cast which will make it so much easier. Like I said in an earlier post I used Cranial tech but was never able to get my insurance to pay. My friend went to cranial tech still their insurance would not pay for it either but then went to Star Cranial and for some reason the insurance would pay there. Hope this helps you. <BR/><BR/>The helmets are not that bad. Well it least on one child! Cannot imagine 4 at one time. First night of sleeping will be the hardest. If you go with Cranial the casting is the hardest part. You cannot do anything for them and they have to sit still for 10-15 minutes and cannot really see anything. Good luck.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16582505.post-82160767244511258842008-01-05T14:10:00.000-06:002008-01-05T14:10:00.000-06:00I have been reading your blog for a long long whil...I have been reading your blog for a long long while and LOVE getting the updates on the kiddos!!

My daughter had to wear a helmet and I love cranial tech but a friends son just had to wear a helmet and they went to another place and the inusrance covered it. His helmet looked just like my daughters and instead of doing a cast of the head they take pictures. I cannot call her this late but will get with her and pass on that info to you. Good luck!

I too do not know you, however I feel as if we are best of friends. <BR/><BR/>You and Joe are the only people who know what is best for your babies(except God) and you have to do what you think is the best for them. Please dont let the uneducated tell you what they think or how they feel. Only when they are parents can they decide what is best for their children. <BR/><BR/>I hope that you and Joe get to do the "getaway" more often. I know that you probably need it and want it. <BR/><BR/>Hope that you all had a great Holiday and will have many more great memories to share with us.<BR/><BR/>In Him,<BR/>KellyKellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08033418163210558425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16582505.post-2564825680034968712008-01-04T20:46:00.000-06:002008-01-04T20:46:00.000-06:00Aren't get aways great?
