In a fortnight's time our handicapped twins see their Paeds Consulatnt (a great man) for the last time... then it'll be onto the adult list... which we have been warned means no more help... ever...
Yes we worry about that eventuality Taf although we have a few years to go before we get there. I guess people like us just have to kick up enough fuss to get what our loved ones need. Sad but true....
