She wrote: “So baby Oax had his helmet fitted yesterday and his plagiocephaly treatment has begun, to say I’m feeling overwhelmed is an understatement!
“But I trust the process and I know it’s going to be a Journey for us as a family, and it’s going to take some serious perseverance from me and Casey but the guys @technologyinmotion are so comforting and have made me feel as content as possible about the whole experience!”
She added: “I’ll document the whole progress made for everyone to see and I’ll keep everyone up to date how we’re getting on if anyone wants any advice my DM is always open.”
