Ellie, in my community there is a well-regarded pediatrician. One day some new people moved in across the street and the doc went out to say hello. He noticed some symptoms in the new neighbor and urged him to go to the emergency room (something to do with circulation and heart). Turns out this guy was a heart attack on legs, and the doc probably saved him a lot of misery by speaking up.

Plus, he's got an awesome reputation around town now!

Call the girl's mom and tell her what you think. If you can refer them to an appropriate doc, do so.

You'll be doing them a huge favor.
