If all that you say is true, Marie, tell the mom to go see a plaintiff's lawyer who specializes in medical malpractice. On a more positive note, some friends and I have had good results regarding constipation following advice given in Smart Medicine for a Healthier Child, by Zand, Walton and Rountree. I don't know if it would help though given this syndrome.
