Cover Girl

During Salem's February casting, Dr. Accousti had mentioned the possibility of someone contacting me to do a story for the hospital newsletter. I was interviewed a few months later and told that Salem's story would be featured as part of a story about the advancements in scoliosis treatments. She also enjoyed a fantastic water-filled photo shoot! We have been so thankful for Children's Hospital in New Orleans, and of course, our doctor and his staff. Mehta Casting is not a new treatment method, although it is not well known since it seems people are not as familiar with Infantile Scoliosis. However, the waterproof material is new and has been used here first. We are hopeful that more surgeons will become interested in learning more about it so that other kids like Salem can eventually benefit from this material. You can look back through my older posts to read Salem's full story. Or visit here for more information and history on Infantile Scoliosis and Mehta Casting. Pictures of the article for the New Orleans Children's Hospital's Small World are below. Thanks for following our journey!











Here are a few other pictures from the photo shoot that were our favorites!
