New Neurologist Starting 2012

Bertrand will start seeing a new neurologist next year. Her name is Helen Barkan and she is an M.D./Ph.D., with her Ph.D. being in electrical engineering! Being engineers ourselves, this gives us hope that she'll speak our language, and we'll have an easier time staying on the same page. At the very least, perhaps she'll share our hope that good quality of life is not a lost cause for Bertrand! Please wish us luck!
