Day #184 - Clinic

Lily has been sick for quite some time. She has mostly had cold symptoms, but they have gotten worse and worse. I took her to the doctor last week and he prescribed amoxacilin for a mild ear infection. But the past few days she has been complaining that her arms hurt and her fingers hurt and her ears and her head. It worried me enough to call the nurse practitioner over the Spina Bifida Clinic. She was so great to talk me through the possibilities and help me to decide what to do. We ended up going into clinic today to see Neurosurgery. We also saw the pediatrician, the nutritionist, the occupational therapist and the nurse. It was very comforting to talk through everything with them and to get a little bit of peace of mind.
