“Finally, I found a checklist for fetal alcohol syndrome on the internet, checked off most of the checks, and took it in to the doctor. He said, 'Oh, you might be right.' So we went to Children's Hospital, got a diagnosis for my daughter, and it became clear that a lot more needed to be done in the medical profession to be able to identify it. Her doctor had been trained and knew about FAS, but couldn't recognize it since he hadn't come across it that much in his profession.
