[tri-med] Re: question regarding growth

I never considered growth hormones for Soleah either since she requires so much 
care--I wouldn't be able to care for her if she was much bigger.  She's about 4 
feet and about 45 lbs.

Irene, though I cant really remember what Bec's growth was like in the
first year, ( I would need to find the growth chart, will try and look
later) remember even normal kids grow more in the first year then they do at
any other time. I cant answer the growth hormone question as Bec has T18
but I will say that most of our triers tend to be on the small side ( which
is a good thing if you must lift and carry them) Bec is growing about an
inch a year for the last few years, and at 4'1" and 65lbs that's enough for
me to lug about, and I don't believe she will grow much taller.
