Re: Lillyanna back in hospital

Hmmm, it sounds as though casting might be too risky if she has lung issues like

that. Scoliosis of 44 degrees shouldn't be causing her to have issues like what

you are describing. Ian was 43 degrees and it never affected his lungs. You

definitely need to find out what is causing that to happen. Good luck with

everything.

to find the cause of her tachypnea.
