Thanks, Mom

My mom called last night to say her friend Charlotte, whose husband is a doctor, is very worried about Quinn having tainted milk. That freaked her out, so she asked her pharmacist what he thought. Here's what she told me: "He said that, at 15 months, if he's getting the tainted milk, he'll probably die or be on kidney dialysis." Gee, thanks, Mom. That's helpful.

Would we reject him if he has kidney disease? No.
Would we back out of the adoption? Of course not.
Do I know whether he's been drinking tainted milk? No.
Is there anything I can do about this from here? No.

SO DON'T TELL ME SOMETHING THAT'S GOING TO MAKE ME A) SAD. B) SCARED. STOP!

(She did call today to apologize. And she's a great mom who can't wait to meet her first grandchild. But, pleeeeeease!!)
