Re: Our 9 year old daughter has iritis

The nurse said that he wasn't an iritis specialist, but I had said that he was recommended to us, so she booked the appointment.

We were right in the middle of buying a house and renovating, so I didn't really pay attention as close as I should have been. It ...
