I'm really sorry to hear that. The other docs are right of course. Too bad being an ass isn't grounds for malpractice. Hopefully she will make it past "the date" long enough to realize that this idiot isn't God though he seems to have the delusion. I wish I could offer some advice other than to point out to her the many examples of people who have gone on beyond - sometimes long beyond some mortal's prediction. Take care of yourself. I'm glad that your art gives you some breathing space..
