Baby needs a helmet to form his skull correctly
« on: Jan 03, 2013, 12:38:41 PM »

A good friend I was in the marines and iraq with had twins recently and one had some medical issues. I was just informed he needs a 3200 helmet for one of his twin sons heads so it can form correctly. This is great but insurance considers it cosmetic and will not cover it. I have never done a fundraiser but figured I would bring up with my fellow wheelers and see if there is anything we can do or how to go about this legit like. I got a 100 bucks on it. I am waiting to get more details and I can link to the Facebook page. He's not asking anyone for anything, I would just love to help him and his little boy out. Cheers.

Here is the link over on pirate http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/general-chit-chat/1112557-baby-needs-helmet-form-his-skull-correctly.html

This kind of thing makes me wish I was rich.  I'd just buy it for the kid.  Alas, I'm poor and don't even have medical for myself.

Good luck.

Heck yeah. He is doing good, he's a couple pounds smaller than his twin Peyton but he's growing.
