For those Canadian members of our Family - We have just had an entertaining evening watching the Canadian Toronto Moose play the last of three ice-hockey games against the Auckland All-Stars. The Moose lost the game 6-4 but having won the previous games, won the series.
This was courtesy of Ken Mulgrew, one of the Moose, otherwise known as Lefty. He and some of the team came to Amy's school to talk to the children. When I saw he was missing his right hand I had a chat with him about LittleLimbs, and he promptly offered to get us tickets. He is a good ambassador for his country - though on the ice he is not quite as kind to the opponents!!
Ken met with us during the breaks and had his photo taken with Amy and 3 of the other children, and at the end gave Amy his medal, which she is very pleased about.
We have never seen ice-hockey played before and are amazed at the speed and the amount of physical contact. I was never sure whether to watch the puck or the acrobatics.
Amy says "It was fun for me".
Well done Toronto.
Regards
Ann
NZ
ps We live in Peter Mulgrew Street - apparently Peter is/was Ken's uncle!
(We was one of our famous explorers but died on Mt Erebus when the plane
crashed - some of you may remember the event.)

Well, we are due to go into surgery on tuesday....and as of last night,
Jasmyn
is running a fever of 101 and has flu symptoms. We would appreciate
all the
prayers we can get to not have this one cancelled. Of course
I don't want her
going into this thing with a bad start, so what I'm really asking is
for
prayers that she get through this and over it before we have to report
on
Tuesday.
Thanks All,

Hope everyone who has had surgery recently is doing fine. Sorry

Hi Everyone,
Well Ill be sending out my next lot of pictures this week sorry they
are so
slow but as I am so far away I do a dozen at a time and think I might
be
half way through by now.
I have only received about 15 photos so far and would love to receive
more
as I feel that this is such a fantastic idea specially for Ashleigh
as she
will be able to see all these other friends and not feel alone.
Im just so
sorry that there is nobody here in Australia who keeps contact which
does
make me feel a little lonly but at least I have you guys there.
I would like to know if anyone or maybe everyone has had trouble with
winter
viruses like RSV and croup or just flu as every year I seem to go through
such a scare with Ashleigh and have ended up in hospital by ambulance
the
last 2 years one year with croup and last year with RSV, Last
week I though
she had RSV again she couldnt stop coughing and was choking and throwing
up
from coughing so much she was a very sick girl but the last 2 days
seems to
be pulling out of the worst, still coughing but no more temps.
I am sick of
hybernating over the cold months because I am too scared to take her
out of
the front door incase she catches anything am I being just paranoid.
DOES THIS EVER GET BETTER as they get a little older is what I
would like
to know sure colds are always around but are they always so severe.
I am feeling very pregnant at the moment but have still 12 weeks to
go and
my stress level is really bad as she did not sleep for four nights
with this
and I am still working for another 6 weeks and sometimes feel that
I am
going to fall apart but like you all Im hanging in there. I have
my eldest
son turning 18 this week so I will be busy organizing his birthday,
I hope I
dont get BLOW OUT after all this.
SORRY FOR THE WINJING JUST LETTING OF SOME STEAM!!!!
GOOD LUCK TO ALL HAVING SURGERIES TAKE CARE

Jackie Lynn has a "submucous pallete" and had a difficult time growing
her
teeth in as most everyone else. What worries me is that she seems
to be
growing two brand new front teeth right smack dab in the middle of the
roof
her mouth!!!!!! Has anyone else had this? And has anyone
else been
diagnosed as having a "submucous pallete"? Forgive the spelling...
Looking forward to any input.....we can't get into the dentist for 4
months!
P.S. Anyone else having as much fun trying to brush teeth as us?

Dear Friends:
I just wanted you to know how much I am enjoying the pictures everyone
send. I organized Seth's album a few weeks ago. Everyone's
picture is
labeled and in alpha order. The album is next to our computer
so I can
look at the sender's child's picture when I read email messages.
I am
starting to have a mental picture of each child in my mind. It
makes me
feel so much closer to everyone.
Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to send the lovely
pictures of your children. Whenever I talk to Seth about a child
I show
him his or her picture. Seth and I spent quite a
bit of time a few
nights ago looking at EvaJessie's picture and discussing her up coming
surgery. I think that it helps him to realize that he isn't the
only child
who has to under go surgery and medical treatments.
Warmly, Dori

We will keep Sarah....and parents of course...in our thoughts and prayers
this
coming week. Just think, this time next week it will all be over!!!!!
Glad to hear Zoey is recovering nicely....having the bandages/cast removed
is
always a fun part of these procedures. Like a little gift every few
months.
I wanted to post a litle update about Jordan for those fixing to go
through
the hand surgeries...and of course everyone else.....He is doing very
well and
I am very proud of him. He has both thumbs and pinkies free and he
has amazed
me with waht he can do...from feeding himself toast, to holding a cup....one
thing I will NEVER take for granted again is the ability of a baby
to hold
his/her own bottle/cup and feed themselves. Its amazing how difficult
it is to
go anywhere b/c you have to totally stop to give them a bottle....no
tossing
one in the backseat while you are on a drive.....I have become very
envious of
moms who have this luxery!!!!!
But hes doing quite well....is walking kinnda..up on all the furnature
and
trying to escape form his crib....hes had several falls, our most recent
giving him a huge goose egg on his lovely forhead...which mind you
was squeshy
(yes, like a soft spot) and had me paronid all day yesterday.....didn't
bother
him a bit, minus me poking at it all the time!!!!!
Hes keeping me very busy, as I am a lone parent until Sept. 11, as Joe
is away
visiting a few different hospitals.....And I am exhausted!!!!!
Best of luck to those w/ upcoming surgeries that I have missed...our
next one
is Sept 12....6 days shy of Jordans 1st b-day.....I hope our recovery
goes as
well as everyones has here recently!!!!
Have a good one......

Hi! Gang,
Andrew had his Cranial Vault remodeling (Posterior release)
done last Monday 7/27. He was at CHOP in Philly for 5 days.
We noticed that he has a huge soft spot on top of his head.
The zig-zag scar is still healing and tough to look at. Do any
of the other infants constantly look "up". We only give him
Baby Tylenol. Anything else we can try.? How long before
the scar really heals.? We put Polysporin on the wound.
We are having trouble getting a smile.! from him.
Thinking of all the other infants and kids. (Nicole / Sarah Muggli
etc..) Thank you to all for your advice and helpful hints on what
to expect.
Your friends

Hi Ann. Thanks so much for your post about these ambassadors for

country. Interesting note about Ken Mulgrew and your Peter
Mulgrew. I
myself have never seen them play; however, ice hockey is a big favourite
in
these parts. We have a professional team here in Calgary of course,
although they've been in the slumps for a while now. Anyway,
it is a fast
game and I too have trouble watchign the puck. I've always said
I see an
entirely different game fromanyone else because I have trouble finding
the
puck (poor eyesight I guess)
Pretty neat that Ken came to Amy's school and talked to the kids.
I bet
she's pleased to have his medal. Nice memento for her.
Thanks for posting this note. Made me as a Canadian puff up a
bit. We ARE
good folk. Thank you for reminding us.
Nicely done, Ann.

Rich and Karen,
After Mitchell's cranial surgery, we were
sent home with a bottle of
Demerol. Of course, he was 16 months old. A three month
old might not be
able to tolerate it.
We were specifically told NOT to use motrin.
Apparently sometime in the
past it had interfered with the healing process of a patient.
Glad you're home!

Hi, glad to hear that andrew is doing well. One note of interest,
Derek as
a newborn and infant used to look up all the time. I used to
think it was
the lights or something that he saw, but it disappeared in time and
now he
doesn't do that at all. Just my one input. Keep us updated.

Although it is summer here, we have been battling something with
Jacob
(2yrs) since March. He had pneumonia in March and again in July.
He is
starting with thick secretions again now even though he is on an antibiotic
and has been for a month. He also had problems a year ago April
with what
they thought could have been RSV but tests showed it wasn't.
I guess
because he still has the cleft palate he is suseptable to everything.
I
wish we could keep him healthy enough to get some surgeries done!

After Jordans cranial surgery he was on Tylenol for a few days then
moved to
Motrin...funny how different doctors use different meds. I know for
his hand
surgeries we always get a script for Tylenol w/ Codene, but so far
regular
tylenol and motrin is all we have needed......minus a bit of the stronger
stuff at 4am to get him back on a normal sleep cycle
Glad to hear Andrew is recovering nicely

Carol~
How old is Ashleigh? Zoey's Mom here (she's 18 months now), but
she was
hospitalized every month with the exception of May last year due to
respiratory infections. She does have a trach though, that's
what everyone
attributed it to. I took her out of daycare and she's in the
hospital 99%
less now. She never caught RSV, but a friend at daycare did (also
with a
trach) and we held our breath for about a week. She's had pnemonia
a few
times, but mostly her illness was an unexplained "respiratory distress".
She's also put on some weight, so probably fighting bugs a little bit
better
now.
Take Care,
Christina

Carmen Rae got tylenol with codeine (sp?) and the doctor said we could
try
Motrin. However, she really didn't need either. (Thank
goodness, as she
gags and throws up if we try to give her meds!!!!!!) Carmen's
incision was
pretty much healed in 3 - 4 weeks. Although, she still has a
spot on top
that is irritated from the stitches. Glad to hear you are home;
we will
continue to think of Andrew and pray for a speedy recovery.

Hello everyone,
We are glad to hear that Andrew is doing well. We have been sort
of
behind in responding to the email since Nicole's cranial remodeling
(7/16) which she is recovering very well. She is acting like
nothing
ever happened.
Rich & Karen, you mentioned that Andrew looks up a lot. With
Nicole she
always seem to have her head tilted back as if she was looking through
bifocals. Nicole's eye doctor said that this was normal in children
with Aperts because they usually have a "V" vision. Their eyes
widen as
they look up and come together as they look down. Therefore she
has
learned to tilt her head in order to have single vision.
Also, her eye doctor recommended eye muscle surgery prior to age two
and
this will help correct this problem. I don't know if this is
what you
are referring to. This is just our experience.

Morgan (7 mos.) always looked up at the lights as well. She does it
a
little less now than when she was just born. I am glad to hear she
will
grow out of it. I am curious why Andrew had his posterior release done
so
early? Did he have pressure on the brain? Morgan had hers done at 6
months
- she had no pressure. We just did not want to do a total vault at
once. .
We had gone to CHOP to see Dr. Whittaker for a third opinion on Morgan
but
decided to have Dr. McCarthy and his team at NYU do the surgery. Whittaker
had told us to wait until Morgan was at least six months or 15 pounds.
It
continues to fascinate me on how different the doctors advice can be.
I
hope Andrew is recovering well. I thought the posterior release made
a big
difference in Morgan developmentally. Our thoughts are with you.

Hi Rich & Karen
Our daughter Ashleigh who is 3 yrs always has looked up and we were
worried
about it affecting the muscles in the back of her neck but were told
that
this is the only way she can focus properly with both eyes until they
do
some sort of correction to the muscles which should be done in the
near
future.

Hi All~
well just a little update about Courtney. A week or so ago we went
for our
yearly check up and again all is fine as far as the cranioal facial
goes. We
did see the dentist and Courtney has 2 loose teeth! I couldn't believe
it! She
is 5 though, but still..... He said it would still take a few months
for them
to come out. So she might loose them around school time.
We were told also she does not need her Mid face advance till she is
about 7.
Oh Don I did want to ask..... How can we or do we update the kids'
page? I
would like to update Courtney's because the letter was wrote so long
ago.
Oh I was wanted to share one more thing... the other night we
had some
friends over... the man friend was sitting in the living room, Courtney
was
talking to him, the next thing I see.. She is showing him her friends
that
look just like her! All I could do is smile... she was just talking
away tell
him everything it was so cute!
Take care all
always Dawn

Courtney had a huge one before her surgery so I didn't notice anything
afterwards. But that is why we were able to wait so long on her surgery.
Do any of the other infants constantly look "up".
hahaha Courtney did... its is because she sees something
there now... ie. a
forehead she never had before... hahaha she grew out of
it, but it was cute
when she first started it, the look on her face was Wow what's that!?
hahahaa
As far as her scare, which is zig zag, it held in a week or so...
I just kept
the greasy type med. they gave me, it was awful on her fine hair but
we just
put hats on when we went out.
I know its a little late, but with summer and 3 kids I have been
a little
busy =)

Lynn, What you are going through is perfectly normal. Brooke is
19 months and I
still grieve sometimes. Go by your instincts. If you feel
that Andrew is doing
well and is where he should be great but I would ask the therapist
and his doctor
what they think first.

You are missing Brooke's picture. I wanted to send a recent picture
and
beleive it or not and my camera broke and I lost the whole roll.
Then she got
sick the end of May and didn't get home until yesterday. Well,
my camera has
since been repaired and just as soon as I can I plan on sending some
recent
pictures.

I loved this poem, so I decided to send it to the listserver.
Ignore all
the bologna after the poem, though. You know, it is one of those
rediculous chain things. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the poem,
but
remember I am not sending it for benefits of the chain. (Although,
I won't
complain or give it back if I win a large sum of dough!!!!!!)

Rich & Karen:
Glad to hear Andrew is home and doing well. The scar will gradually
get
better and be less visible. As for looking up all the time, Emily
(1 year old
now) she was always looking up also. I used to think it was the
light from
the window or the ceiling fan, but her eye doctor said it has to do
with the
fact that her brain is telling her eyes to do that because she can
focus
better that way. She actually said that is a good sign.
As far as smiling, Emily didn't smile for a long time. I remember
seeing a 3
month old in Macys and the baby was smiling and she wasn't yet.
It does come.
As I am still learning, everything in her own time.
Best wishes,
Janine Krebs

Hi ALL
My name is Jessica Botha. I joined the server about three weeks ago
with
the help of my friend , Tiaan.
I joined the server because I have a two year old boy that was born
with
Apert syndrome.I was only 18 years old at the time.
My son's name is Clint. He has had several operations on his face and
especially his hands , and next week the doctors are going to start
on
his feet as they are webbed as well as his hands.
Luckily he has'nt had any problems with his teeth or eyes etc.
He is a very active little boy with lots of love in him.
Tiaan and me are setting up a website for Clinty and we will let you
all
know when it is going up.We stay in Pretoria , South Africa.
I just want to thank you for the listserver which has helped allot
. It
was so great to see other children with the same symptoms as we have
not
seen other children here in South Africa with Apert Syndrome.

Glad to hear that Zoey,Andrew and Brooke are home and recovering nicely.
Our
prayers are with Jasmyn and Sarah. Hopefully they will be home soon
and
doing well.
Welcome to Tiann,Jessica and Clint. Also welcome to Dr.Hopkins.
Hope I didn't miss anyone.
Things here are going ok and Billy will be having his surgery on Augt.13th.
The Urologist will do his surgery first which will take about an hour
and
then the surgeon will do the two index fingers. He will stay in the
hospital
for two nights and if everything is ok he will be home by Saturday.
It was interesting to read that Tiann,Jessica and Clint live in S.Africa
and
that the Hartley's also lived in Africa. Not because we have ever lived
there but because Billy's Plastic Surgeon is also from South Africa.
He is a
great guy and is wonderful with Billy and all of us.
Also wanted to say that we got a new picture in the mail today and it
was
wonderful to see Joanne Lindamood's picture and read all about her.
It was
almost six weeks since we had any pictures delivered and it really
made my
day. I am hoping to see many more pictures in the near future.(hint)
Hope all is well with everyone else and I will write again as soon as
Billy's surgery is over.

There's been some discussion about the eyes lately. Just wanted
to
share with you about the LASIK eye surgery I had last week. Now
I can
see without contacts or glasses. The outpatient procedure was
clean,
fast, and painless. This is something new and has only been FDA
approved in the U.S. for about 3 years. But the results are amazing!
Our insurance covered the cost. It corrects nearsightedness,
farsightedness, and astigmatism.

Folks, in the future, please think about these type of chain letters
before you forward them on to all of your friends. This one is
a prime
example of a letter that was probably designed to pull at your
heartstrings and add to the worldwide waste of pointless email.
Think
about it - exactly how will these emails be counted and the totals
relayed to the Cancer Society? And have you ever heard of the
Cancer
Society making treatment contributions contingent on the efforts of
random strangers?
Trust me - these chain letters are designed to tie up your time.
If
there is a Dennis Shields, just think of the calls he will get from
this
phone number being published. Also notice that in the supposed
quote
"Dennis" is misspelled - evidence that the "original" message is
probably a forgery.
The world is full of people who have nothing better to do than to design
things to waste time. Please don't let them waste yours.

Don,
I have been leary of these
kinds of letters and just happened to
call this one to check it out, and indeed, it is a fake. This
poor
Dennis is getting so many calls it states on his answering machine
"if
you are calling about the e-mail, it is not true"........what a world.

I don't beleive there has ever been a chain letter that has been on
the
up and up. It is similar to a pyramid scheme where you send money to
the
first person on the list..and then copy the letter to 10 people etc.
This will only work for the people who first start the letter..and
in
Canada, these types of schemes are illegal.
Thanks to Don for the timely reminder about what is basically e-fraud.
