Jill,

I'm really sorry to hear your update I hope you get some help from Denise's link there was a whole wealth of info on her threads.

You are in my prayers. I too have a young family and I think this escalates our fear..... There is lots of help and treatment options out there make sure you find out everything so you are armed with knowledge and get a seat at the knowledge table.

Good Luck sending big hugs
