Our oldest daughter Sarah is painfully modest and extremely thin. We hadn't taken her in for a cardiac checkup in years because the hospital we took her to previously spent more time trying to dig up the secrets to her "eating disorder" that she doesn't have than checking out her heart. I understand their concern but it just got to be too much. Well last year she started having some chest pains and we knew that we had to take her somewhere. The trouble was that she was over 18 and couldn't be seen by a ped. cardiologist anymore. She is extremely and painfully modest and we knew that the adult specialists would eat her alive. I called an awesome pediatric cardiologist who has made amazing discoveries in his career at Columbia University here in MO and explained the situation. He agreed to see her and it was amazing!! She is so very childlike in ways and very innocent. He treated her so wonderfully and explained more to us in the one visit than our other doctors explained in 10 years. He has agreed to see her this year too (she will be 20). I don't know how much longer he will see her but we, like you, are counting our blessings right now!! :-) God is so good isn't He?? Blessings!
