Guest guest Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 I called Shriner's here today and they were SO nice. (They've always been great to us, so I had no reason to expect otherwise.) I told them the story and they said not to worry about not being able to get x-rays, that they can just write whatever brought them there - even something like, " a chiropractor found one shoulder to be higher than the other. " It gave me goosebumps to hear her say that - without me even telling her that it was exactly what happened! You know those divine moments when you really feel like you've hit the right path - when things just line up? It was one of those moments. Anyway. She has family here - and we've reiterated that she is always welcome in our home - so I think she's going to try to come up. There are no ETP trained docs at our Shriner's, but the curve is mild so far and we're working on changing that. This just motivates me to work harder! Thanks for your help and information!
