I just wanted to offer a hug. I know how scary it is waiting. When the hospital called to let us know about the positive result we immediately looked up the condition and were pretty devastated (even though it was a treatable...

We had a true positive.. my DD is hypothyroid. I hope yours is a false positive, but if it's not... you'll get through it. Be glad the screening is there. Many of the conditions it finds are quite treatable. Good luck.
