Re: a fall down the stairs/e

Hi e:

Please accept my sympathies on the passing of your grandmother.

What a shame to come home and find your daughter in such severe pain. I do

hope that nothing was torn. It is frustrating when we are trying to get our

children help and doctors/offices don't seem to get the picture (makes me want

to reach into the phone and shake them!). We, of course, want it done NOW and

they just can't understand that. I know sometimes they are full, but couldn't

they stay a little late to squeeze in a child.

Congrats to your daughter that she faced her fear of needles and gave herself

an injection. Koudos for her:) I have an 11 year old who just started daily

injections and I wonder if she will ever get to that point. I know you have

a brave daughter there:)

I understand your feeling of being overwhelmed. Just take it one day at a

time. Things will get done when you are able to. Hang in there.

Take care.

Patty,

I so agree about the not being able to get in. He said she needs to

be seen but then they can't work her in. Going to the ped wouldn't

help at all. I'm not sure if she may have torn something. She is in

so much pain that I don't know how we would tell the difference. We

have seen two different orthopedics and not been impressed with

either one. I don't know. I guess we will have to see how she feel

after more days of prednisone. This is day 3 so far with little

improvement. Her rheumy is out of town until the 29th. We'll just

keep a prayer in our heart and hope for better days ahead. Thanks for

the thoughts.
