We got great news in the mail today! Matthew was accepted as a patient at the Texas Scottish Rite Hospital in Dallas. TSRH is a premier orthopedic hospital and I found their information when I did my research for best places for thumb pollicization (moving the index finger to a thumb position). Unfortunately, the appointment for initial hand consultation is mid-October. Hands are at the bottom of the surgery priority list, so we’ll reschedule if necessary.
This news is a ray of hope and light. It is nice to think about something other than the immediate, about something positive that will improve Matthew’s life in the long term.
We are thankful for our friends, the Kleinfelders, who helped us with the signature needed for our application and to our pediatrician for his referral to TSRH! And of course, TSRH for accepting him!
