I fear that this little girl's chances are slim unless some medication or therapy or environment (or combination thereof) work out. Was there any mention of if the Elidel has produced any measurable improvement?
hope does seem far off but helping the cause will just make things move along quicker even though it may not seem like it when you wake up tommrow morning after you helped
