Carrie proposed that they take Maxine back to the pediatrician, but Eleanor protested fiercely. She was adamant that the herbal teas would improve Maxine’s health if they were just patient.
Mike was conflicted, caught between loyalty to his wife and the doubts he was feeling about his mother-in-law. He made the decision to handle the situation himself. On a day that Eleanor wasn’t home, he took Maxine back to the doctor in secret.
