@alphacat I'm so sorry for your loss
I worked in Pediatric hospice, please go see a grief counselor. It is catastrophic to lose a child; losing a child when there is the type of scenario you mentioned would be unbearable. I am so sorry for your loss; please take care of yourself. Sita
Hematologists are Specialists in blood disorders, including all components of the blood.
I'm still too raw and emotional to be fit for counceling. I think it is something you deal with the rest of your life, it just gets less acute.

I hear you and hear the pain. As a clinical social worker, I can tell you that you don’t have to ‘be fit’ for counseling, a good counselor can meet you where you are. Parent grief support groups are helpful as well. Love and hugs to you, I hope you can take care of yourself in whatever way feels right to you. Blessings. Sita
I've never heard of that kind of doctor. I'll look into it. I am anemic too.
I am so sorry for your loss. good luck and thank you!
