Thanks so much Christine for sharing your story... Oh how heartbreaking to feel a DR had betrayed your trust! I hope you and your husband are on the right track to recovery now. I guess I was unneccesarily paniced. I copied and pasted to the CARETAKERS board as well and recieved other helpful responses. I also posted to that board the update on what the Dr. said when he returned my call. There is an incredible number of people here with HOPE, HELP & Heartwarming stories to tell. I will be reading them all in the weeks, months, even years to come. You can't have too much information, can you? Reading reports that I have to go to the "Dr. dictionary" to understand... But it better prepared me to ask the pointed questions the next day in the short time I had to ask them. I'm not the patient so I'm always afraid of taking up too much of the Dr's time for fear that if I REALLY needed to speak to him, he might delay the return call until HE had time. It's just a strategy I use. I know they are busy. I just received those reports in the mail and it was a bad night to get them, after hours and Don unable to make it home that night. It's great to have this board to vent. Our lives parallel with so many others here when no one else seems to understand. Keep the faith! There's ALWAYS hope! It's NEVER too late!
