This month has been busy with Dr appointments. First she had her check up with the ENT about her noisy breathing. He basically said he's still not concerned about it and still thinks she will out grow it. I guess that's good but of all her things, that draws the most negative attention and comments and I was really hoping he would do something. Next was the neurologist. She still has good bedside manner I guess, but I'm starting to feel like she's too busy and too rushed as well. She wouldn't even listen to my concerns that I really feel like Hannah has other issues besides CP and didn't even look at the video I made about Hannah's crying fits when she is going to sleep. She did agree with me that Hannah's not getting enough sleep and prescribed a sleeping pill. She said if that didn't work she would send her to a sleep specialist. I have given it to her for two nights and so far I haven't seen much difference. She said give it a couple of weeks so we will see. I don't go back to her for 8 months (like I said too busy).Lastly she went to her ophthalmologist. I was hoping he would be ready to do something about the eye crossing, but he said lets wait and see four more months. He said the problem is that she is not crossed all the time and usually they only do surgery when the eyes are crossed all the time. I guess 99% isn't enough for him. I was also disappointed because I wanted him to fill out a form so she could get vision therapy when she goes to school but he said her eyes were too good for that. ARHHH I am so frustrated with all these DRs. I want so badly for somebody to take an interest in Hannah and really try to help her. I wish Atlanta had a team of Drs that would work together and not just a bunch of egotistical people that are more worried about making money then trying to help someone. Please pray that I will not be so frustrated and that some doctor or team of doctors will actually try to help Hannah. Please also be praying for the evaluations she will have in July or August so that she can get into the best class for her. Next appointment is May 11th with her orthopedist.
