Sweet Libby

My heart is heavy as I write this. We had a terrifying experience with Liberty's doctor today. I was positive about Libby's development and weight gain only to discover that she had only gained 6.5 ounces in 33 days.
To make a long story short the doctor and I disagreed about the plan of action for Liberty and the doctor is threatening to call Child Protective Services and "have the child removed from the home."
We are taking proactive steps to avoid this and appreciate all of your prayers and support. Sean profoundly stated, "I cannot imagine life without Liberty." That is true in so many ways, I feel our very freedom is being threatened.

I'm thinking of you, and know you will be guided to the best plan for Libby's health. You are an amazing Mom with all it takes to provide the best care for the kids. Please remain open to all care possibilities that can prevent CPS involvement. Once CPS in involved they may "micro-manage" for a long time. I am only saying all of this out of concern and hope not to have offended you in any way. I love you all.
