Childhood RSD - A wonderful recovery.

[sahuaro]

What a moving poem! Thank goodness for parents who persist in finding help for their children. I look forward to reading their account.

A child in pain learns far to early the realities of life. They see everything and understand far more than we give them credit for under normal everyday circumstances but to watch a child suffering is heart breaking... and more than equally rewarding when they can crawl away from that suffering and give voice to their thoughts. Kind of makes you wonder if maybe we should turn over the world to the kids!

Mark:
I have a close cousin that has been diagnosed with RSD,
i know first hand of his trials and tribulations with the disease and how dibilitating it can be, recently he has had a electrical device implated in his spine which is adjustable to help with his episodes which are pretty severe at times, it seems to help him a great deal, although this has been a totally disabling reality for him, and he finds he is unable to fully function daily. This puts a strain on his family and kids.
