"You know, you're running the tests and nothing's coming up4. So, is it in his head, is he just an extremely stressful child? It's just frustrating 9 we're not finding any answers," says Marilyn.
It turns out Kyle was suffering from a condition known __10__ functional abdominal pain, that affects as many as one out of every ten kids in this country. Even __11__the cause of the pain may not be obvious, there are real consequences.
