Patchman

Well, we're still trying to correct the torticollis. It's come down to getting a 3rd opinion, where it was recommended that he get his eyes checked. It turns out that that's what was keeping him from getting fully corrected. Dr. Jacobi was great and advised us to use ocular patches 6 hours per day, alternating eyes, for 2 weeks. It worked! When Tato has his eye patch on he straightens his head. Go figure. It's worked so well that we've continued with the eye patches. Don't worry, Tato loves wearing the eye patch. He stands still, closes one eyes, and leans his head towards us. The only thing is that he has run into the furniture a few times.
