hmmmm....IDK - All I know is that the blood has to be overnighted to Cornell for the results, so maybe it wasn't accurate bc they didn't send them to Cornell. Or like you said, it's not as accurate as I think. Although, did Scout have multiple internal shunts?

But back to the problem, Sasha is only 16 and her parents don't have the $$$ or the means to travel to U of Tenn. That's why I suggested that the Vet, and Sasha and her parents talk about a plan to handle what they can in Cali....
