I had no perspective, no message for TV cameras, no 10-inch newspaper story on how to deal with the fact that my baby was afflicted by a disorder that I, for one so well-read, had never even heard of. I also knew that I had to use every bit of my training to get knowledge - quick. Still, it was in silence.</span>
