Learn about what brachial plexus injuries are and how they can be prevented. Please share this link with anyone you know who is in their childbearing year. My daughter's new and updated site. This is the website of Beverly Cusick, PT, MS, COS - creator of TheraTogs Orthotic Garments. When Dr. Pape told me that Maia needed to have a bilateral brace - a brace on both shoulders, I didn't want to go for the arms only because I knew that Maia's whole body needed support (she has low tone). Fate had it that Ms. Cusick was in NY for a week of courses and I took Maia to meet her there. The change in Maia's structure was immediate and I knew at that very moment that I was witness to a paradigm shift. I've been working hard to let the community know about TheraTogs and how it can help their children. This is the website for the Brachial Plexus Palsy Foundation. The Foundation is in Royersford, Pennsylvania but reaches people all over the world. We have a message there that is a wonderful and peaceful place to be. We have annual family gatherings. And we also have the first ever BPI Educational Scholarship Fund. You can purchase donation cards online and send them out for birthday, anniversaries or just to show someone you care. This is the national group called the United Brachial Plexus Network, Inc. They have a huge message board area, medical resources, bibliography and more. |
