Re: spinal motoneuron regeneration following root avulsion

Thanks for the link! What stumped you was exactly what stumped me! If neonates have the best healing potential, then why is the protein missing???

Thanks for posting the question on another board! The more we all understand, the better we can advocate!

Re: Helping neurons find their way

I could not reply to your thread: "spinal motoneuron regeneration following root avulsion", but I wondered if there were theories as to why the protein was not found in neonatal injuries. Have you read anything, Christopher? Marieke? Anyone?

Re: Thumb Twitching

<t>When Aria's thumb hurts her, we use moist heat, stretching followed by massage, and Motrin. <br/> <br/> I'll echo what others have said that knowing the source of the pain (I mean specifically) will help. We've learned that Aria's adductor gets overly tired from being "on" so much, so she seems t...

Re: Hello Everyone!

<t>Hi Krista,<br/> <br/> I was just logging on to post something nearly identical to what Kate wrote. There is no way you (or your daughter's doctors) would have missed a completely flail arm.

We wish you wouldn't go, Tom! You don't have to be good with words to be part of the family here! (And, I've never thought you were bad with them.)

Please stay with us?

<r>Traci,<br/> <br/> I can only speak to the way I would respond as a parent, but I would be incredibly grateful to any concerned and informed party (such as yourself) who intervened to protect Aria. <br/> <br/> Without knowing this little girl's history, or seeing how forcefully the teacher was pul...
