                        Peggy, Our son has scoliosis, diagnosed age 7, caused by Arnold Chiari.  The Chiari was decompressed 2-14-01.  He is still in a brace, but the curve so far has gone from a 37 to a 33. Did your daughter have a syrinx?  I am happy she made so much progress so quickly! Did your pediatrician pick up on the scoliosis?  I am interested in your story.  Please write me if you can.  Currently we are traveling to PA from FL for a more flexible brace not available here.  Thanks.  Ruth Whitehurst
