Helmet Head




On Friday Gabe went in to get fitted for his helmet. The back of his head is flat from when he slept on his back all the time and has not rounded out. So they made a plaster mold of his head to form the helmet that will be used to reshape his head over a couple months.
Gabe hated it. I have never seen him cry so hard. The guy making the mold was this big baby huey type guy and about pulled Gabe's head off getting the back part of the mold off. Hopefully Gabe won't have to go through that again. But afterwards we got some Gerber peach cobler and tropical desert for him as a reward for making it though the ordeal.

Awww! Poor little guy. The son of one of my co-clerks had to wear a helmet too. Let me know if you want me to put you in contact with him to talk about his experience with it.

So sad! He'll be glad later I suppose, and there's nothing like good food to drown out the sorrows.
Sure enjoyed seeing you guys last month!
Love,
