Thanks for your responses. I appreciate your taking the time to read and respond. I have tried to be her advocate as much as I can and have given her many choices on her treatment. Usually nothing seems to work. However, I am hopeful that we have turned a corner in her attitude. She cooperatively went to the gym last night to work out on the hand bike and elliptical machine that the Dr wanted her to do, and also willingly took her cymbalta this morning. I didn't even have to remind her. After days and weeks of arguing and digging her heals in, the only thing I can attribute it to is prayer. I have so many people praying for this girl! I am grateful that, for the time being, she seems to be handling things better. Now i just pray that the meds and treatments will work. The Dr is being so aggresive b/c as you all know the symptoms only grow worse with time. I hate to think that she will deal with this forever! She is about to have her sweet 16 party and is having a sleepover with two friends right now picking out pictures for their slide show. I hope that these fun times help to take her mind off her pain. It seems to help.
