Thanks.
I read your post with great interest. I'm an old grandmother and have never heard a single thing about this before - and never met a child I thought had these symptoms, so I researched a bit. My gosh, this is scary stuff. How long has this been going on? Is the incidence in children increasing? Are scientists doing research into what is causing this?
Whatever I find out, I wish you all the luck in the world in finding comfort for your child, and the blessing of a cure.
