I guess the bad news is also the good news. I'm most encouraged by Staci's post and thinking you might explore this option further. I'm so glad that Dr. R. feels confident in his assessment and that in fact these are separate issues. Distressing as they are, it is better than having them be symptoms of some acute and dangerous condition.

Thanks for giving us the complete update. I kept looking at the clock trying to figure out where Lilly was in the process of seeing the Doc. I'm so glad she was able to get in when she did.

Okay, now let's exhale.
