Hi, Everyone.....Liz.....I sure hope you figure Tori out. How high a dose

is she on for the Risperdal? Someday's, I tell Gareth he's just having a

'plain old meanness day'.

Becky....I am so sorry to hear about Dylan going through this. Was it an

infected hair follicle? I'd definitely get the chest checked out (X-ray)

and did they bx the infection to r/o cancer?

<<nathan is 19 and speaks very little, mainly needs, wants, or direct

answers to a questions, in 1-3 words that are often difficult to understand

unless you are around him lots like us.>>

a.....gosh.....we're talking about Gareth here!!! Does

stutter so badly like Gareth does? I think that is why he stops/doesn't talk

much.

<<Her aide wrote no stimming, laughing or humming>>

.....that sounds like she is heading in the right direction,

though. The main benefit that I found from Risperdal (similar to Seraquel) was

that Gareth was finally able to focus and we could work on behaviors without

him getting so angry/frustrated. He could relate to pain/discomfort and

was better able to tell me " food tube hurts " " knee hurts " . I hope you can

continue to keep her on it for a while.

Take care, Everyone.
