So glad Avery is doing better. I love good updates! Proms are so much fun! Is

he getting a tux? Post some pics if you can. It is wonderful to watch them grow

and become independent, but bittersweet too. Where did our babies go?? LOL

I haven't been here in a while, I think I have been recovering from our fall and

winter. Avery is doing wonderful! He had a little flair while weaning the

prednisone and getting a cold but we bumped it a little and he recovered

quickly. We are back down to 10mg of the prednisone again and will wait till

June to start weaning again. He has stopped gaining weight at that dose! lol

He looks so good, and so very healthy. He is finally pain free. It took a

long time for the rilonacept to work all the way but for now that horrible

disease is being controlled. Avery now has a girlfriend! They are so very

sweet together, she has down syndrome too. They have known each other all their

lives but haven't seen each other in years! They found each other on facebook

right before he got sick, she thought he was hot when she saw his picture.

She called him when he was in the hospital and they have talked and chatted

since. He asked her to his prom and she said yes! They are both so excited.

lol Since we live so far out she is coming with her mom for the weekend. They

will stay in a hotel in town. Avery is going to take her on his first date to a

movie the night before. It really makes my heart so happy, it's been a long

road and it's so nice to have this joy. She sends me messages on facebook

telling me she loves my son, life doesn't get any better. It's just so nice to

have this normal. I'm going to try to catch up with everyone.

Hello,

So I am five months in. Definitely a challenging journey, but I have faith its

gonna be so worth it! So not much has changed since last month, still very

little if any acne and most cravings have diminished. I also gained the weight

back I lost since starting.(but I still would like to gain a quite a bit more, I

am underweight and I am excited for my weight to day normalize.)

But the bad includes hair loss, its been tough. I have been reading a lot of the

post stating individuals who have struggled with hair loss on this program and

then the individuals who stuck in there and now have seen positive growth.

I also have continual loose stool, one of the biggest problem I had prior to

this program was digestion and bile movements. So I know loose stool is normal

at times but it has been rather consistant for a few weeks now. Should I be

concerned? Again i am under the assumption that it is just part of the

detoxification process so I am just barring it.

I also continue to show dark eye cirles/bags, anyone have this issues and any

success stories with this? This was also one of the reason I started the

program, I have always had the attitude that things like poor digestion, dark

cirlces, and hair loss in my opinion aren't a normal part of aging or heridity,

they are signs your body is sick. I never listen to conventional medicine. So

please input would be appreciated.

casey.

+++Hi casey,

That's good you have some improvements, and healing does take time and patience,

so hang in there.

Loose stools is nothing to be concerned about. My brother, at 60 years old, had

loose stools for 20 years when he started on my program. He continued to have

them for 20 months when they finally stopped. This is because it takes 1 month

of natural healing for every year you've been unhealthy. In spite of having

loose stools for so long he was still able to get healthy.

Many people have reported having dark circles and bags under their eyes

stopping, but I probably didn't collect them as success stories. You could do a

search on group messages to see if you can find any of them.

Toxins cause dark eye circles and bags under the eyes, so as you continue to

healing they will stop. Bags under the eyes can also be related to unhealthy

cell construction, mineral and water problems, etc. but they too are handled on

this program.
