Introducing Christopher

Christopher was diagnosed with plagiocephaly and torticollis at 5 months. I first noticed that Christopher positioned his head to the right a few days after coming home from the hospital, it was confirmed at his 3 month appointment he should be evaluated. Based on the assessment from Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, they recommended the STARband helmet and aggressive repositioning treatment.
The learning process began and the ongoing struggle with the insurance company began as well. We were denied coverage from our insurance carrier 6 times, twice in one week! The frustration and the cost of the helmet began a search that brought us to www.Alexandrasphate.org. Talking with Gary and Valerie and reading about their daughter, proved to be a blessing! With the help of Alexandras PHATE we were able to see the other children and learn more about plagiocephaly and torticollis, also, acquire Christopher's helmet.
I am honored to track Christopher's progress and possibly help another family beginning their journey.
Christopher is such a sweet and happy little baby, his smile melts our hearts! He has a twin brother Max that makes him laugh! He also has 3 older siblings, Ave' 6, Sophia 5 and John Morgan 4, all competing to make them laugh everyday!
