As I am putting Sienna's essential oils down her spine for their various reported benefits...I notice I can't really follow her upper spine too well and have to push in to find it whereas the lower spine protrudes. At that moment it hit me like a punch in the face...I was devastated at the fact that her doctors had possibly missed yet another issue. Neuromuscular scoliosis as Dr. Google told me. I only believe this when it makes perfect sense and then further retrospective thought leads me to the fact that this has been coming! No one suggested bracing or checked her back even after the fact that when she was first diagnosed she was practically sitting on her lower back. (Therapy helped her stop doing this so I didn't associate it with back problems...) Besides with everything else to focus on how could I not miss something so important? I'm livid that they failed her here again BUT I choked back my tears and simply added it to the list of things to tell THEM she needs corrected. Head up...
Hoping I am over-reacting here.
