Guest guest Posted September 20, 2003 Report Share Posted September 20, 2003 Hi Barb and Pam L- I can't think of any reason not to do an MRI. I would do it with my own children if the pediatrician thought it was warranted.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2003 Report Share Posted September 24, 2003 Geeeeeee.... Barb , Guess you learned how many people really DO care about you. ( Big Grin ! ) Don't even feel poorly about not knowing to check here. It had been slow for some time, and I guess I should have told you I raised the flag for ya over here. We must both be short on chocolate these days. That is the only excuse I can come up with. ;-) -Pam L- And a special thanks to you U. I can only imagine the work involved , but the warm feelings with these most special babies. Funny, some times I just take a moment and enjoy the thought. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
