So we have a small dilemma at our house. Okay, it's a big one to me. Emma has a flat spot on the back side of her head. After our last pediatrician appointment they let us know that if it doesn't improve we will need to take her to a specialist and most likely fit her for a helmet. No problem right? Well, apparantly helmets are medical supplies and insurance does NOT cover it, any of it. Any guesses as to how much those cost? $2000. So, here's the deal. On top of that, Matt works in the construction industry. Enough said right? Money isn't exactly flowing, not even close. . . So - we REALLY need your help. Can you please please please pray for our family that either Emma's head will improve or some miracle will happen that will help us to afford the help that she would then need if it doesn't?
For those of you that know me. . . I hardly ever ask for anything. I'm at the point that I'm asking. I feel close to the brink of a stressful break. . . lots going on, don't need to complain, vent, or whine. Emma's little dilemma just feels like the straw that just might break the camel's back. Please add us to your prayers. . . .
Thanks everyone. . . .

Hi Katie, I'm the one who deleted that last comment because I found a typo- :) Here it is again:
Oh we know how Helmets go....we used one with Caleb for quite a while. (let me know if you want the name of the doctor we used.) Have you asked if there are any programs/discounts to help with funding if you have to pay for the whole thing out of pocket? Keep us posted, we'd love to help any way we can!
We are with you, dear. Hang in there.
I will be there every step of the way, Katie! You don't need to worry...count on it!!! Love, Tim/Uncle Tim
How about a family fast? What do you think?? Let us all know! I have called a couple of times to check on you and fam...would love an update!! Muscle...you are all developing spirit-muscle...WAY TO GO!! xoxo Love, mom/gma
Katie, if you have any additional information about the helmets like brand names?? Do they have to be custom fit by the physician?? I have several accounts with medical suppliers and could possibly get one at my cost which most always if half if I had more information. Call me! 208-964-0631
