Guest guest Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 Even if the tape recorder is on the table, a lot of times, they forget it's there if you just keep talking. If you can get other people to be " on your side " in numbers, that helps some too. Can you get her SLP, OT, a home consultant, an advocate or any other professionals involved in your daughter's life that can be there? If not this one, but any other meetings you're bound to have in the future? I know of a lawyer in San Diego who used to live in AZ that has a son with autism. She has won many battles for families in AZ. Maybe she could do a consult over the phone?

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 Hi there, My name is . I have been lurking in the shadows for some time and finally decided to out myself. I am 40 years of age and currently 122kilos. I start my Pre-op Optifast diet today for my procedure on the 12th. No nerves or anything yet. The most interesting thing I've learnt so far is that fizzy drinks can expand your stomach by as much as 400%. This of course made stop drinking my soda water immediately. (I always assumed that as it was just soda water it was okay.) . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
