Hi my name is Sherri and I have an 11 year old daughter who was diagnosed with Minimal Change Nephrotic Syndrome on December 22, 2008. She was 10 at the time. When we were told her diagnosis i had never heard of this disease. I had no idea what to expect. She was on Prednisolone and ended up in remission fairly quick. I thought that since she responded to the medication so quick that it would not ever come back. Well I was wrong. It just came back last week. She is on a high dosage of steroids again. It breaks my heart watching what this medicine does to her poor little body. She is embarressed by it and doesn't want any of her friends to know. She went into a pretty deep depression the first time around i just pray to god she doesn't get depressed again. Is there anything i can do for her to keep her from getting so depressed?
