It has huge ramifications for the medical community as well as the consumer. <br /><br />You probably bring this up in the book, which I haven't read, that funding for therapies is often discontinued for children that don't "make progress." But for children with progressively debilitating disorders, <i>maintaining</i> a certain level of function is tremendous "progress" in light of the potential for deterioration. The energy that goes into fighting the funding cuts could certainly be better spent elsewhere.<br /><br />Thanks again for sharing a thought-provoking interview.Rose-Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01125239149179291715noreply@blogger.com
