After 10 months of watching her get worse we went to Hopkins. The first thing the neuro guy there did was ask us how we felt about trying a diet. We just about kissed him!
I still think that what I think of as "Ph.D. Disease" and its variant "Expert's Disease" ought to be considered tortious when the consequences are so severe. How many other kids whose parents didn't have the oomph or the ability to drive hundreds of miles for a second opinion watched their children die because this, um, gentleman expressed his prejudice as scientific fact?
The SOB also called our kid "spoiled" because after waiting 45-60 minutes in a waiting room so crowded that we had to sit on the floor for an appointment scheduled right in the middle of nap time she was whiny when he examined her.
Yet, he is considered a great man, and a part of the hospital is named after him.
Forgiveness is one of the heaviest and hardest of the gifts our Lord asks us to take up.
Johns Hopkins University Hospital, a little oasis of Heaven located in the stinking stench of east Baltimore, is a wonderful place.
My younger son has been a patient there for three years, now.
I hate the trip into Baltimore, but get warm and fuzzies when we arrive at the hospital.
A very, very special place, especially if you have children.

Yet one of the most important, and efficatious.
