GretchenSara Spector did one in Waxahachie, but I think she's in Hondo now ("Sara" on the user forums). It was a pretty heartbreaking case and she did a terrific job on it. She may be able to help.

SaraYou don't want to call it munchausen by proxy. You need to call it medical child abuse.You will need a forensic pediatition to testify at trial to review all the medical records of the child. Is this a cps case or a criminal case?

Nancy RumarThank you. Have investigator keeping record of everything. It is fascinating to me. Too early yet to move on it other than call CPS.
