I hope the letter writer was able to make some changes and that addressing the topic in this forum helps educate parents and make them more sensitive to their children’s needs.

Dear Dr. Yael,

I was sorry to see that you did not suggest to “teary-eyed” (11-6) that she might have PBA, Pseudo Bulbar Affect. I would suggest that she consult with a neurologist.

Sincerely
M.C.

 

Dear M.C.,

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I was not aware of this condition and hope it will help this young woman rule out any medical issues.
