Follow up Head Scan

Back in November Jackson went for his follow up head scan. They were extremely pleased in his progress from his physical therapy, stretches and overall improvement. Now that he rolls over and sleeps on his tummy he isn't putting the pressure on the back of his head which allows it to grow properly.
His width to length ratio decreased by .9 %. And his difference in diagonal lengths changed by 3.2mm. They consider a diagonal difference of 0-6 mm normal and his was 6.1mm. The verdict...no helmet for Jackson! Yay! See his previous head scan here.

We are still going to physical therapy but his therapist is very pleased with his progress and he will likely be switched to once a month soon. The physical therapy is to treat the torticollis.
