Well Merry I try to be organized, been the only one who is around them all

the time the best I can do is that way. They are growing too fast and they

know a lot, I don't want to take advantage of them but they can help me in

so many ways. Iam only one person and they are three if I don't start since

now teaching them is going to be hard later to try to do so. Carolina and

Cristian they help me a lot and when I ask them to get something or if they

want something they know how to get it. I kinow you are wondering why I

never talk about dad. We are separated since last october, he decided to

take the easy way in all this and I didn't get the help we were supposed to

get from each other. He had an affair with some co-worker and things got

really bad between us. I didn't knew our marriage was in so much trouble, I

thought everything was ok between us, by those days we bought our first

house and I was very excited about the house, the kids. When suddenly all

this hit me in my face, right now we still separated because he doesn't want

to sign the papers. But I proved to myself been away from him I really don't

need him, all my kids know is me. And Iam ok with that. I really don't mind

share my experience with others. He was the one who did it wrong not me. To

sad he is missing so many wonderful things about them. I think you are

amazing having kids on your own plus running a day care wow. Seems like you

are doing a good job and can handle things very well.

I just returned from San Diego, where one of my

leukemia when she was 5. <BR>

She, too, is in remission. & nbsp; Nearly half of the

were raised. & nbsp; It was <BR>

awesome! & nbsp; I understand a little of what you must

Thank heavens, he is in remission.<BR>

I look forward to hearing more about you and your

Pam, Thanks for the welcome. Your girls are right

close in age to my Youngest boy, Jaykob DS, he will be

6 in Dec. Is your 20 yr old still at home. Did you

know you were having twins before they were born? and

did you know they would have DS? I know that I found

out what I thought was a long time freind had aborted

a set of twins because she was told one or both had

DS. When she told me I never felt so sick in my life,

and she told me this after I had adopted my son. It

was sort of like her saying to me are you a fool or

what. I am still so angry with her that I don't speak

to her......Merry

& gt;Mabel, from your message I can tell you must be

very<BR>

& gt;organized to get all that done. & nbsp; They are

still little<BR>

& gt;enough to like having playmates all the

time. & nbsp; My kids<BR>

& gt;are at the age where they argue a lot because

somebody<BR>

& gt;is always anoying somebody else. & nbsp; If the

worst your<BR>

& gt;daughter has done is poke her tongue out at

someone I<BR>

& gt;think your doing okay, besides at her age it is

more<BR>

& gt;of an I can do it to thing not a Nasty

thing. & nbsp; I<BR>

& gt;usually have a very busy house because on top of

mine<BR>

& gt;I have three daycare kids; so I usually have 6

kids<BR>

& gt;from 20months to 9years running around here. & nbsp;

And 5<BR>

& gt;out of the 6 have special or behavioural needs,

and<BR>

& gt;that only leaves the baby and his mom has just

left an<BR>

& gt;abusive husband so he is a bit

confused....Merry<BR>

& gt; & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt; & amp;nbsp; It hasn't been easy, now they are 26

months and<BR>

& gt;a is walking, is & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;never easy but at least they all are walking and

if we<BR>

& gt;go out all I have to & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;do is open the door and let them go to the van

and<BR>

& gt;they go to their car & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;seats and all I have to do is put the straps.

The<BR>

& gt;other day I ordered & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;chinesse food and went to pick it up, we park the

van<BR>

& gt;close to the place and & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;I told them we are going to hold hands and walk to

the<BR>

& gt;restaurant, they did & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;exactly what I said, they looked so cute.

Everything<BR>

& gt;with them is getting & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;easy, feeding, bathing them, getting them dress,.

In<BR>

& gt;my neighborhood there & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;is a lake and the other day we went on a picnic,

I<BR>

& gt;grab my basket and put & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;some stuff in there put the kids in their wagon

and<BR>

& gt;went there, we found a & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;nice area with lots of trees we sat down there

for<BR>

& gt;half and hour and ate and & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;they were asking so many questions, then we played

for<BR>

& gt;a while in the & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;playground, they had a lot of fun. For been in

the<BR>

& gt;terribles twos they are & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;good kids. The other day I was watching the

kids<BR>

& gt;playing in the front of the & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;house and we have new neighbors and they came to

meet<BR>

& gt;us and they have a one & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;year old girl, she was sticking her tongue out

to<BR>

& gt;Carolina and Carolina did & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;the same to her. I didn't like what I saw but at

least<BR>

& gt;I know Carolina won't & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;allow nobody to mess with her. I don't know is

that is<BR>

& gt;good or bad. All I & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;can say I have a lot of fun with them and never

gets<BR>

& gt;tire of been around & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;them. Been a mom to triplets is good, I really

love<BR>

& gt;it. And I believe to & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

& gt;been raising my kids on my own Iam doing a

good<BR>

& gt;job. & lt;BR & gt;<BR>

Hi Carolyn,

Welcome to the group. :)... As for your son, there's no reason he

can't be tested now as Lyme Disease can be transmitted through the birth

canal. As for yourself maybe they said your Lyme test was Equivocal meaning

they can't tell if it's there or not and there's need for further testing.

Pleae go get yourself and your son checked... Good Luck and keep us posted..

Apparently, I have been told, NV is kind of backwards in their services. Although, we have been very happy with services. Could it be we are just very vocal consumers of these services? Davey also seems to be doing really very good. We attend Special Children's Clinic in Reno. This is a state run clinic that bills our insurance for all services, but does not collect from us on anything that the insurance doesn't pay. Davey has a great Service Coordinator that comes to our house once a week. He also sees a fantastic OT once a month. We are going for a speech evaluation next Monday. Our Service Coordinator said he will probably not get to see the Speech Therapist, because of the other services he receives. Also, the class that taught sign language to the families has been canceled, because the college interns that were employed by the state have been let go due to budget constraints (I am going to make noise about this, especially since the therapist we are seeing is the one who coordinated the sign language class). So much for the new governor being pro education and pro child. We also see the nutritionist as needed, mostly for constipation issues. We do not need to go back to the developmental pediatrician, because she has so much confidence in our own pediatrician. We "graduate" from the clinic when the boys are three. At that point we go into the local school district program. I don't know a lot about this program yet. mom to Amy 13, Kelsey 11, Davey (DS) 15 months, and Will 15 months (unknown)>> Hi my name is Merry and I have 2 boys with DS and a> daughter as well.

Carolyn,

Where you on antibiotics when you were retested?

Also I don't know about the age but I have heard that you can give it to a

baby if your preg.

My daughter and I take lecithin beads (not the gel). While I can see no

outward results, it is a brain nutrient and it could not hurt anyone to

supplement lecithin. You can sprinkle it in soups.

You cannot really count on lecithin to make a dramatic change, but I would

not give mine up for the world since I find I grow more and more inventive,

creative and cunning <grin> with time. I would say lecithin is one of the

things that helps me.

<I have noticed that you are not taking this kind of

medicines. Is it posible to treat candida without medicines (only

with herbals)??? >

<I have decided to buy Amphotericin B, Nystatin and Dyflucan and then

take all of them for 2 months>

As for myself...I can only buy herbals. Everything else I need a

prescription from the doctor. And that is just too expensive for me. So I am

on the herbs.

Just stick to your diet and take your anti-fungals. You seem to be getting

results already! Hang in there!

Thank you,

I think I know what kind of pillow you are referring to, and I will try to

locate one. I hadn't thought of that kind of pillow before. I had just

tried a regular pillow.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Karma: I have found that a floor pillow works best for me. As we are

each

different I suspect that one size does not fit all. I have the Sun Harmony

chi machine. My husband has used it faithfully over the las few years.

When my knee gave me trouble I stopped using it and then realized I was

missing the benefits so found the pillow was the solution for me.

And, yes the Sun Harmony seems expensive - approx. $480 if I remember

correctly. I know nothing about any other machines except what is shown

on TV. They make a pillow specifically to put under your knees - I do not

know if someone on the list has them for sale or perhaps it is on a web

site.

Best of luck -

Hi Bill,

I would say....ask your questions and wait for answers. If you want, post

your privat email and let people email you privately.

Good luck

Hon, isnt the Bells Palsey enough? And, it isnt supposed to produce pain,

btw. You need more antibiotics, not a spinal, which shows really nothing.

Or you could forget about meds and see what shape you'll be in in another

5-10 years, then get saddled with 'MS' or 'FMS' or another useless dx and be

really screwed for LIFE!

No, there is no definative test. Stay on abx till ALL symptoms are gone for

several months. Period. Take a 'harder' abx than Doxy, something like

Zithromax, Ceftin, Flagyl etc if you have a herx every month, you'll

know you are still infected. A few weeks isnt enough and with Bells Palsey

dang sure not enough, that means you have nerve damage and will require

more, maybe months and months.

What I am asking is how long do I stay on the antibiotics since

Bell's is the only symptom. I guess the Bell's is the only way to

know whether it is gone or not if there is no other test to see if it

is gone. I may not do the spinal but how long should I stay on on

the abiotics???????

The nurse practitioner for my LLMD said I would need to stay on abx until

all symptoms are gone, plus two months. I am guessing this is standard

advice?
