Doctors and our son

Just for the record, in case I lose count down the road, our son Nick has seen over 6 doctors in his short 20 month life. These include a plastic surgeon who recommended a therapuetic helmet and got him a CScan, our first pediatrician, our second pediatrician (in Fl), a neurologist who was recommended by our concerned second pediatrican who (neurologist) did not understand why we were sent to him, an audiologist to check his hearing, an opthomologist (who gave us a prescription for glasses) who has now recommended we see a Retina specialist next week on Tuesday and who wer also have to of course do follow up visits with (the opthomologist) since now he wears glasses. Also we have an occupational therapist still scheduled (yet unseen) to do home visits with him for motor skills and an yet unseen speech therapist who will also visit our home to help him speak at a faster rate. Everybody needs to keep up with this in case I lose my mind and start speaking in tongues or something. Thanks! Love, Jennifer
