This whole thing is a horrible nightmare and I'm praying that this recent solution will work out for him. He must be so frustrated and confused. I'm so sorry for you, your family and for Big Kid. I hope now he can start getting his therapies on a regular basis and there are no more life threatening crisises to have to deal with. My wish for you is that life can get back to as close to normal as possible.
