Getting the proper care and evaluations by the professional psychologists, psychiatrists, doctors, and nutritionists is crucial.

You are so right when you say we never think that something like this could ever happen to a "normal" family...it does, as you so obviously discovered! Kristen was one of the lucky ones and she also couldn't have made it without the love of her parents.

I think as parents we just want to make everything perfect for out children - and we simply can't. There are so many outside forces at work besides the very human frailty we are all born with.
