here is the post her mom posted in the forums detailing whats going on with her
"Thank all of you so very, very much. VERY much. I have been diagnosed with an illness called idiopathic ventibular disease. My parents went to eat Saturday and I was running and playing, and being myself. When they came home I started acting weird, like a there were bees all around me or something. My head was jerking up, down, sideways, and every which way. Mom immediately called our local hospital and told them we were coming. I threw up all the way. While we were there my eyes started going back and forth extremely fast, and I couldn't walk without falling over sideways. This disease makes you very dizzy, and the room is constantly spinning. That makes you sick at you stomach. My breathing was more like panting. My bloodwork came back mostly good, with the thyroid and liver just being a little off, not much. But there are some kind of cells to do with the lymph nodes that could indicate cancer, but not neccessarily. I don't even know if that makes sense. We stayed while they ran fluids into me, and a shot for the vomiting. The vomiting did not quit. Mom and I were back there Monday while they ran more fluids into me, and gave me a stronger shot. This shot worked better. I lost 4 pounds in 36 hours! This is when they found the sinus arrythmia (sp?), and low heart rate. We have 3 specialty hospitals in the area, and none of them would take me unless it was life threatening at that moment. They said I was in stage one (of three) and was not in immediate danger. We went back yesterday for mom to learn how to force feed me, as I refuse to eat a single bite. She got 2 1/2 onces in me, and I threw it up. My appointment at the specialty hospital is at 9:00 in the morning, and mom can't wait. She is really scared. She won't let me sleep alone, or be alone. Her or daddy or my aunt is by my side every minute. I was spoiled before, can you imagine how spoiled I will be now? At the moment I don't think it's spoiling, I think it is loving! Thank you guys again, 'cause you sure make us feel loved!!"
