Lorna,
Poor dear. So young. I can't help with your question but others here have
had similar things done and I'm sure they will write you back. Tell her she
is never alone in this horrible endo we all have and to please talk with
others about everything it really helps. We welcome her to come to the forum
anytime to relate with others it will help her. Take care both of you. She
is lucky she has a mom like you.
Becca
