Dear Family and Friends,
Well today we got some bad news. Our little Kade was diagnosed with torticollis. We had a feeling something was wrong when he wouldn't turn his head the other way, and wasn't holding it up straight. I thought at first he was just a noodle neck from being an infant until he was coming up on his 3 month birthday and still doing it. We took him to doctor Wang today and sure enough our suspicion was right. Anyway I'm not going to turn this into a sob story because that will do nothing but bring me down. Prognosis is good and we will begin therapy on Monday with some of the best Pediatric Physical Therapists in town. The good thing is we caught is so early that it should only take a couple of months to correct with no surgery needed. Lets keep our fingers crossed! Love that little guy so much and I'm willing to do anything to correct this for him. Please pray for a quick recovery for him.
XOXO,
Lindsey
Lindsey I fond your blog and you and your family are so fun to read about! My baby Jace was diagnosed with torticollis and had to do therapy as well. I was suspicious from about 2 months on but my Dr. told me it was nothing just a severe preference to his right side. Anyway I went with my gut and got him checked out by someone else (unfortunately it was a few months later) and got referred to a therapist and started the next week. He is fine now and you don't notice unless he is tired. Good luck! I'm glad you caught it early.
