Guest guest Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 Kerri Sue, I am sorry to hear about your son. I have never heard of that disease. I will keep him in my prayers, and hope he comes home soon. I know this isn't easy on you, hang in there, it will get better.

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 I'm sorry you have to go through that. Having a very sick child, especially a baby, is so hard to deal with. I'm glad they found the cause and can now stay on top of it. My understanding is that KD is much more dangerous if it is left untreated, so your son has a much better chance of coming out of this healthy. I'm glad you brought him in. We'll be thinking about you. --- In , kerri paquette <ksp2242@y...> wrote: > > Its been a very trying week for my family.
