Dr. Addis was my OBGYN in Tucson back in the mid 80s. When I began having complications during my pregnancy, she did everything that was available at that time to try to save my son. Kody did not make it...he was stillborn at 28 weeks gestation, but I know she did her best to save him...and because of his autopsy, she and other doctors and researchers were able to determine his cause of death...an autoimmune disorder on my part...anticardiolipin antibodies (without lupus)...because of this new knowledge, two years later I was able to deliver a healthy baby boy...
I contribute alot of the success of his delivery to the previous knowledge we learned from Kody's death, as well as my new doctor (we moved in between) being willing to research my condition and do whatever it took to get my son here...
oh and when Kody was discovered to have died in-utero....Dr. Addis was playing golf when she received the message, but she came right to the hospital and laid in the bed beside me...holding me...
We kept in touch during my pregnancy 2 years later and she rejoiced with me in the birth of my son...she even sent him a little outfit!
she is a very caring and compassionate person and I would highly recommend her to anyone...
