Hi:

Seems that you and your faamily are going through a rough time of it with all the revisions. You might want to ask for a second opinion on what needs to be done.

You don't say where you are from so it is hard to know where you are getting treated. A location might be helpful to some of us in directing you to the right information or people.

I have a great appreciation for what you must be going through with a stoic child. I was a stoic at that age aswell and in many cases I guess I haven't changed much. Sometimes the best way to deal with a stoic patient is to observe closely and notice the changes as they happen. In time you will see the signs of trouble before they develop into more difficult problems.

I wish you well and hope that there will be a resolution to the situation that you and your family are dealing with. It can be a challenge at time and frustrating but there are people out here who can offer information from time to time
