Maybe I should try lifting, I have been trying to get that sore feeling again! LOL I mean, I know have some pretty good workouts at times and I keep thinking I'm going to wake up sore but I don't. I love that feeling! Makes me feel like I've really kicked butt! Even though I complain all day when I am sore. I used to have a membership at the Y but canceled it when I started to work nights. I haven't worked nights in over a year now but still I am dreading that whole gym thing again. I was SO uncomfortable! I gotta work on my self esteem somehow. Maybe that'll be my next project!

Guest guest Posted July 17, 2002 Report Posted July 17, 2002 Regarding " mold " in the basement. My understanding of the " smell " from mild comes from the production of mycotoxins that are produced from the mold itself when trying to compete with other mold colonies or bacteria in the general area. Be aware of the fact that molds themselves are not usually the problem...it is their respective mycotoxins that cause allergic reaction in most sensitive people. There are literally thousands of these little buggers and identification can be made thru a competent micro lab. I have seen no appearance of mold in my office on any surface running the basic Rife frequencies of 787 800 880 and 1500. Good luck Quote

Some people have reported that black mold disappeared after using a rife-bare in their house for a while, but I have not seen any anecdotes regarding reducing mildew smell. I would put an ozone generator in the basement. There's one for $50 at http://www.amazing1.com/voltage.htm#ozone This is an excellent price for the amount of ozone it produces, which I would estimate at well over 100mg per hour. It states that it produces " over 30mg " but it is way more than this. It has a slightly adjustable fan which supposedly controls the output, but not very much. It puts out so much you cannot be in the same room for long with it. It is ideal for a basement where you don't stay for more than a few minutes, though. Mold can also be in the walls and some molds can cause serious health problems, so if the smell is still upstairs even after the basement is cleared, I would have it checked by a professional. turf Quote
Guest guest Posted July 21, 2002 Report Posted July 21, 2002 Thanks for your advice 'turf'. I've placed an order for the ozon generator you recommend. It will take a while for it to get here, as I'm located in Norway.. I'm open to any 'experimental' advice re. this smelly problem. Esp. the smell getting into the clothings is driving me nuts, as storing newly wasjed cloths for more the 2-3 days requires them to be washed again before they can be worn. Maybe the ozon generator(s) could be placed directly inside the clothing cabinets as well? Maybe using Rife technology also would improve the conditions (I am interested in the Rife stuff anyway - for health improvements..) What are the recommended Rife products for a Rife-novice ?

That is correct. It would work quickly inside a cabinet. As I said before, though, it may be overpowering for the room to be in it while it is going. > Rife technology also would improve the conditions (I am interested in > the Rife stuff anyway - for health improvements..) What are the > recommended Rife products for a Rife-novice ? For this problem it seems that only an RF device like a rife-bare would work - a pad device, the kind you hold onto, would not work for this application, but an EMEM might. The better solution would probably be to lower the humidity in the house with AC (well, I guess you don't have that in Norway) or a dehumidifier. turf Quote

Thank you Meggan Yes definitely social skills and working with peers absolutely. At home feeding is a big challenge. Angel still eats with her hands a lot at almost 10, but then again she is blind as well. Rebekah is the opposite if she is eating and foot touches her she is done and will freak out royally.

For Angel I dream of another, Annie, Hellen Keller's teacher. I dream of the day Angel can sit at the table or in the classroom without off the wall speech and other off the wall behaviors. If her food is too hot or too cold she will launch it like a rocket. If it's not what she wants at the moment she will also launch it like a rocket. If she is cold or hot she freaks and says her ears hurt. Rebekah is on the spectrum with sensory disorders and ADHD and it would be nice if she didn't freak if her spaghetti fell in her lap and upon touching her skin set her off freaking, screaming and not able to touch another bite as well. All in all though they are my beautiful children and I see not a soul is gonna step in and teach her other than me at this time anyway. So well, I just keep doing what I do. Quote

Does he need to be able to play and take turns with a game boy? Be quiet at the movie theater? Help mom set the table? Tie his shoes? Is he able to wait? Take turns? Bring things that you ask him to bring? Go into another room and retrieve something that he's been asked to retrieve? Can he ask another child to play? It would seem that the life skills need to be looked at actual age level appropriateness (chronological age) versus developmental age determined by some test. What are other kids the child's age doing? Are these issues for the parents (usually they are)? And that should get you a pretty good list of appropriate life skills. For me as a parent, if my child were in a self contained classroom, the biggest priority at school would be building a circle of friends for my child--find a lunch buddy, finding someone to take him under their wings on the playground, find someone who would want to come over and play sometimes, invite him to swim. . . .. . My biggest desire would be for the teacher to build a bridge to the typical classroom so that he didn't remain so isolated and had the opportunities to make a friend. I have been so lucky with Angel! She does not have the social skill to make a friend or play games etc. but children love her and several have taken her under their wings. In Angel's case though that is not always the best thing physically because they want to do too much for her, but emotionally Angel has grown because of this. Then again it's sad because Angel is unable to hold a conversation or offer anything but hugs to another child. She talks but it's repetition or off the wall stuff. Nothing with substance or intelligence. If not for the children who have taken her under their wing Angel would probably not talk at all. Also, the teachers hear her off the wall stuff and the repetition though some of it doesn't sound off the wall or repetitious it is. Anyway, knowing this they took her off speech therapy Not good! Her speech alone caused a teacher to make a mistake and get fired and it also caused a marital seperation (we know all is okay, but others may not have) and almost prompted cps and the local police to take her from us.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 Thanks for asking. I agree with . Build a bridge to inclusion. Whatever skills are needed to do that. In my opinion leave breakfast, napping, free play and personal hygiene up to me. Our class has been on 5 field trips this year to develop life skills. I can take my son to the zoo and to go bowling it's not like we live in a cave. Many times schools use life skills as a cop out for not doing the intense teaching that is needed for our children to succeed. Even the most severely affected children can learn if you know which technique to use. I saw Soma recently. My son's favorite color is blue and he knows that green leaves make a gas called carbon dioxide. Our goals are things like adding and subtracting to 18 and he's doing word problems with Soma. Life skills are okay if you're talking about social skills that cannot be taught effectively at home but until high school leave the " job skills " to the back burner. I saw a child once loading a coke machine in the 3rd grade because it was one of his " life skills " . I think 9 years is a long time to learn to deliver cokes. I agree also with about RDI and ABA and soon with RPM. Trina I have a question for all parents (and teachers) in the group. What types of skills or abilities do you wish your child with ASD could work on in a school setting? What types of things are hard for the child to do at home?

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 >>I had a teacher say to me one time, 'It doesn't do any good to teach your child math if he doesn't know how to ride a bus.' What???????????<< , This reminds me of a statement that Ben's former teacher's supervisor made to me a couple of years ago. I was talking to her about including more academics in Ben's program and she said, " First, let's get him completely toilet trained and then discuss academics. " If I could have choked her over the phone I would have. I said, " Why not BOTH?? " I don't understand why some people within our schools don't see motor deficits and cognition as separate entities! I agree with you that they act as if you should work on one at the exclusion of the other. They need to understand that it just takes some creativity as to how to reach each particular child, just as Soma does with her technique. I used to teach and I never saw these false assumptions regarding cognition made with kids who have Cerebral Palsy--why are these assumptions made regarding our kids who also have alot of motor skills issues? ie. " Until ny is able to tie his shoes, go to the bathroom independently, hand me something that I ask for--then we will discuss academics. " There is a good ending to my story, however...that particular supervisor that I mentioned left our district and Ben's present teacher is fabulous--she actually works on academics AND motor skills/life skills daily! a Quote
