Liam and HIs Band...Done!

Today is the day...the last day in the band! Actually, the appointment was at 8:30 a.m. so Liam hasn't worn it hardly at all today. It's been nice to see and kiss his head again. Will was able to go to the appointment this morning, and I actually took pictures of stuff since it was the last time we would ever be there.

The first thing was his last DSi scan. I finally took a picture of him with the stocking over his head. He has never freaked out with it on. Cindy, his cranial therapist is the one holding him. I know he doesn't look happy, but he was fine!

Then we were able to see the progress his head has made with the 3D pictures. Left to right is: 1. his head before the first band 2. his head after the first band 3. his head after the second band. You can see that he still has a flat spot (and always will), but really the changes have been tremendous! The flatness is now just up top, where most people have some flatness. The back and bottom have evened out, whereas before he had much more flatness on the left side.

Then I took some photos while we were hanging out in the room between having the scan done and having the regular pictures taken. I didn't take any pics of the regular photos being taken, but we got a pdf of the pictures from the 3 milestones (before band, after 1st band, after 2nd band). If I can attach it, I will.

So we are done! It's hard to believe that the end of this has come. He really wore the band half his life so far. As predicted, his head isn't perfect, but that's ok. A third band wouldn't be able to do much, he wasn't recommended for one, and plus we can't afford it! I will definitely be warning him against shaving his head one day!

PS: I can't upload the PDF. Well I could, but it involves uploading it to another site first and I don't want to do that. So let me know if you want to see it, and I can e-mail it to you!
