Hi Gabbycakes,

First and foremost I want to say that I am so sorry that you have to go through this. It is so difficult watching your child suffer and there is nothing that you can do for them. I will pray for you and your daughter. My girl is suffering with a really bad stomach ache, we are going to try some kind of stomach remedy. I heard that ginger helps. Also, the pharmacist said to coat her stomach with mylanta through out the day. If its not one thing its another. Thank you and I hope that all things work out for your daughter.
Sandy

I hope Lindsay is feeling the best she can and wish you guys the best. I can somewhat relate to your feellings. I have a 16 year old daughter who we just found out has some pretty serious neuro problems. It hit myself and my husband like a ton of bricks. But we went to the best neuro-peds surgeon in NYC and right now everything is at a standstill. She has a Type 1 Chiari Malformation and a tiny, tiny, lesion/tumor on the temple of her brain. She is functioning normal & may never have to have anything done with either problem. She is being monitored with MRI's every 3 months and so far the lesion has not changed, they are more concerned with the lesion then the Chiari. I think I cried for a week straight. We found this all out in the ER and then had to wait about 3 weeks to see the neuro surgeon. It was the worst 3weeks of my life.

I wish you guys the best. Good Luck...
