In November 2005, works for Culvers Frozen Custard in Madison, Wisconsin
- Jesse Landis McFarland-Ward, born 6 PM on
16 June 2004 at St Mary's hospital, Madison, Wisconsin. Jesse's top skull seam was
prematurely fused at birth (sagittal synostosis) and on 3 January 2005 he had an
operation to re-open this seam. The operation went well, but
he retains a narrow scar across
the top of his head, which could not be seen after his hair grew out. The
operation was entirely cosmetic, to avoid an unusual skull shape later in life, and had
no effect upon his brain functions or personality. About one in 2000 children has this
operation in 2005, and in 95% of these, there is no genetic basis.
