Not as glamorous as I thought it would be...

So I called the GI group at the children's hospital to try and get us in ASAP. No can do - at least a month out.

I called the pediatrician to see if they could get us in sooner. No can do - even the Boston groups are months out for new appointments.

DeeDee can't be cranky like this for another month - just can't.

The pediatrician was sympathetic and gave us Prevacid anyway - the only reason I wanted to see the GI group in the first place.

I kept the appointment with GI anyway but we've started her on the prevacid.

She was noticeably better the next day - they say that's impossible. I say 'No it's not'.
