Dear Nancy,

I can-not tell you how sorry I am about the loss of your dear baby. I know little or nothing about this disorder but I have found a very good site that is strickly for Group B Strep. It will answer a lot of your questions. Sounds like you have a wonderful doctor.

I wish you every success for a healthy child SOON! Hope this helps. Barbara
