Cherie ~

It is so good to cry and get that release ! ! With

all this you actually go thru the grieving period

just like when someone is born into heaven.

We go thru denial, anger, scared, all kinds of

emotions, and it is important that you allow

yourself to experience all of them, as they

are real, and they also keep your endorphins

working full throtle, which you need.

Even tho you feel somewhat defeated, you are

extremely strong. That strength will get you

thru all this.

You will soon have your Freedom from the toxins

that bind you.....

This will sound alittle out there, but I used

mind control for a big part of it, and I now

can have a really itchy spot like mosqitoe bite

and not dig and scratch myself to death.

When it is bugging intensly, I do breathing

techniques as well.

Also use what I posted earlier for itch, here it is

again: (I do still get rashes occasionally but not

like in the 90's with the silicone rupture and all that.)

Cherie ~

Aveeno makes a oatmeal bath soak for

extra sensitive skin, it is wonderful.....I would

give it a try. Also get a spray bottle, and put

about 1/5 of the bottle oil, like coconut or

something good for ya, and fill the rest with water with

minerals in it.

Only pat dry after the shower, and shake up

the water bottle and then spray it lightly on you and

rub it in. I would imagine that dry skin adds to the itch.

Lotions, oils and things dont create moisture for

your skin, they hold in moisture. Most people dont

know this. So, patting dry only and immediately

applying something is wonderful for your skin.

Especially something that is good for you. I love

neutrogena's sesame oil, that is what I use. I plan

to get some organic coconut oil when I can and try it.

I hope this helps you....Love Dede You are in my prayers and hope you get some relief soon ! ! See what's new at AOL.com and Make AOL Your Homepage.

Thanks Dede,

I needed the encourgement! I get afraid since I have tried so many

things, for so long since I got sick. I have a real hard time now

staying positive, I use to be a positive person. I am in hopes to be

that person once again. Today I woke up crying, it feels like I just

need to release. I was pretty discourged several years back when I

was told my daughter had autism and never thought I would feel like

that again but I sure have with this illness. I know that autism is

not reversable and at times I think that this illness is the same. I

have only one more week to wait for explant, I'm hanging on to that.

How is your dad?

Hugs to you!

Cherie,

Some children with autism ARE experiencing vast improvements with diet and detoxing.

There's some evidence that heavy minerals are one cause of Autism. Likely from vaccinations. . Foot baths and some chelating treatments can help remove heavy minerals. . .

Please don't give up on your daughter! I'd suggest seeing a naturopath and finding a support group for Autism where the children are getting better. . .

My daughter worked in a school system as an occupational therapist. . . She saw one child undergo significant improvement under his mother's absolute determination. They actually moved to another state where he could get better treatment in the school system. . . The Fort Worth paper did a big write up on him. . . He was functioning a near-normal levels the last she heard.

I know it's terribly hard to help a child when you're dealing with your own issues though. We see that in the SiliconeKids group on a regular basis.

Mom are very, very important!

Rogene,

Yes your right, there are diets and things I can try. I am thinking

once I ever get better, I will do this. Maybe sometime next year. I

actually want to go thru it first and experience it before putting

her on any fungal/yeast meds and a diet. My recent experience of

detoxing has scared me a bit and sure don't want to put her thru

anything like that. I will see how I do once I'm explanted. I want to

know what she will be experiencing.

She has been thru some great programs, behavorial specialists and is

in a pretty good school program. I started her in programs when she

was two.....did wonders! The only thing that I haven't tried are the

diets.

Hugs to you!

Remember God does not give you

anything you can not handle.....so.......

He is challenging you to show your

strength to a point you see just how

strong and capable you are ! Then

with that strength, you will be able to

choose a man that is as strong if not

stronger than you, as smart, if not

smarter than you. Perhaps all this

are things you need to learn, and learn

about yourself before the right man

appears........Ya just never know~

Cherie,

Please don't wait to get your daughter on a healthy diet. . . It's never too soon.

From what we're seeing with SiliconeKids, those who get on a healthy diet early on do much better than those who wait until they are older.

If you'll gradually introduce new foods to her, the transition will be easier. . .

One of the SiliconeKids was quoted bragging . . . "I don't eat Processed food!"

The kids soon learn that they feel better on a healthy diet.

Detoxing and supplements can wait.

Hugs,

Rogene

[Guest guest]

Rogene,

My daughter is one of the most pickiest eaters I have ever seen. I

have been introducing new foods to her, but nope....won't even try

it. I keep at it but I am wasting a lot of food. She doesn't drink

soda's and very little juice. She likes flavored water. I tried some

gluten-free stuff on her lately....that was a no go! She loves apples

and carrots, so I push that mostly because I get them down her. She

has a very limited desire for foods. She doesn't like anything creamy

and hates any condiment. Apparently I am to be loaded up with lots

of challenges in this lifetime...autism, divorce, toxic boob

syndrome, and changing my daughters diet. hmmmmmm

Cherie,

I certainly can't speak for your daughter . . . but I saw one article that said it's natural for a child to refuse new foods until they've been presented to them a number of times. . . Left over from primal instincts where animals are cautious about new foods.

She may decide to eat them if you continue to present them - without making a big deal over it . . . Even if it's just a spoonful.

I don't know how capable she is . .. but sometimes kids will eat things they help grow or cook. . . A grandson started eating veggies once he started growing them. He has Asbergers.

Honey, crying is not a sign of weakness.....

It is a sign of strength.....and a tool to release

endorphins.....and an emotion you must go thru.

Many times it is hard to pinpoint why the day

is an edgy one with tears at the drop of a hat...

or at a song on tv, or at a memory, or out of anger.

Just know it is ok......it is working thru the emotions

of lifes challenges. Big warm gentle hugs to you.

Thanks Dede,

I'm having a soap box day...sorry! Like I told you this morning, I

woke up crying and have been on and off all day. I really don't have

a specific reason why except I feel crappy and frankly, tired of

feeling crappy. This illness at times gets the best of me! My friends

tell me I'm such a strong person and I am, but sometimes I get

poopy. Ya know, when I feel good, I am a happy person and pretty

positive, even when things around me aren't going so well. But when I

don't feel good, I don't handle life it too well.

Cherie,

There are times when life throws me a curve ball and I feel like you do . . . that's when you need to remind yourself that what you are going through right now is temporary. . .

Look through the archives and follow other women as they go through the discovery, exploration, scheduling and explanting stages . . . You'll see that, at this point, many of them feel much as you do right now. . .

Then skip forward to the messages from the women who have detoxed and have moved on with their lives as they stop by to share their happiness . . .

Life will be good again! . . . One day, you'll be one of our "graduates" thankful to have a second chance at the good life. . .

Please concentrate on taking very good care of yourself . .. it won't be long before you're on your way . . .

Hugs and prayers,

Cherie,

I feel the same many times - especially when I am sick. I have been divorced twice!! Married two alcoholics in a row! I am now married to a great guy - thank you God! But I have always wanted children and we haven't been able to have one. We have tried for over 4 years and spent thousands on fertility treatments. We have pretty much given up.

Many times I get down because of the divorces and the fact that I can't have a baby. All of my friends, sister, brother, co-workers - - etc, just popping them out left and right. So hard for me to be happy when I am so jealous. I feel like a selfish jerk. Then on top of it I am sick with "toxic bomb illness" (good one).

Thankfully I am getting better. I just know God has a plan for me and a baby, whether it is adoption or my very own. Perhaps I didn't get pregnant because of the bombs!! Anyhow - I always try to find the good out of all the bad. Oh, another one, I had a horrible horrible diet before I got sick. So, now that I am ill I am eating so much healthier - another positive.

Cherie~ I just know you get to feeling better after explant. Things will turn around. You are just at a really low point right now. When you don't feel good it is hard to see the positives. Hang in there, only another week and a half until you can start fresh.

Hugs, Lynn

Hi Lynn,

Thanks so much for the email! I myself divorced an alchoholic and do

not want another one, that's probably why I'm still single. I came

across quite a few while dating (ya know the signs to see)!

Oh Lynn, I went thru exactly what you are going thru. When I got

married in 1997, I wanted to get pregnant right away....didn't

happen. It took me two years and a infertility doctor before I did

get pregnant. I did not have to take any drugs but they hooked me up

with a ovualtion kit that did the trick. We were way off on my

ovulation days. Anyway, I get pregnant and life was going great. I

was due on Feb. 27th 2000, however she was born on December 26th

1999. I was only 31 weeks. She was in the hospital for 5 weeks

before I could bring her home. They could never tell me why she came

soooo early. Long story short, I am now raising a daughter (by

myself) with autism. I live with my mom since I left my ex-huband

and she is a HUGE help. I was like you, jealous jenny at everyone

who was having a baby. I could hardy attend a baby shower without

coming home crying. I was such a maniac about getting pregnant, I

wish now that I would have just relaxed and just enjoyed the

beginning of my marriage (back when it was good). I really had no

idea what I was getting myself into. My point here is, your right,

God has a plan for you! When it's right, a baby will come. Enjoy

your hubby! I pray for you to have a healthy baby!

Ok.....I'm having (as Oprah calls it) a AH HA moment! I am going

thru the same thing now (looking for love) as I was back then. I need

to calm down and wait for the " right " one to come along and try to

enjoy being single for now.

Thanks again for the email Lynn, you made me realize a few things!

Hugs to you!

Cherie,

Oh yes, I do know the signs of an alcoholic - I fell for one twice!!!

We have tried the ovulation kits too. We bought the digital one that was over $200. I don't use it anymore because I get so excited thinking we "did it" on the perfect days, then I am a few days late - oh I get more excited and then BAM - my period comes. I get so dang depressed. So I decided it isn't worth it anymore. If it happens it happens and if it doesn't, God has a reason and a plan.

I love my hubby to death but there are some days I miss being single. We have our issues, you know that marriage can be hard work. I agree with Krista, I wish he didn't have to go through this illness with me. He can't understand because he isn't sick. He tries but sometimes gets upset with me because of my diet and such. I am not the woman he married and now I have a much much smaller set of tatas too. Anyhow, it just seems like it would be easier to be single with this horrid illness. But I do know that can be lonely too. There is probably good and bad to both.

I am so sorry about your daughter. It sounds like you have a wonderful mother though. It is great that you have support and aren't alone.

Well at the beginning of the year when I first got sick, for the first time ever I did not want a baby. I could barely take care of myself and I knew that there was NO way in heck I could care for a newborn. But guess what, I am almost 7 months after explant I know I am healthy enough to care for a baby. So this is great news on regaining health.

OK - I will enjoy my marriage instead of focusing on a baby & you focus on getting explanted an healthy!! I enjoyed my freedom while I was single. Then - ta da - I met my hubby. Funny how things happen....

Hugs to you!! I hope you have a better day tomorrow.

Cherie,

We keep trying to tell everyone . . . but we're still just a drop in the bucket!

We need everyone here to tell the world! . . . We can't stop until the medical community recognizes and treats women and their offspring properly!

Sooner or later everyone will know the implant surgeons and manufacturer's for the criminals they are.

Play strip poker.....Back gammon....truth or dare.....

twister naked......have a food fight in the back yard......

get some body paint........and use your imagination

even if ya dont feel like it, sometimes when you

make yourself do something different, all of a

sudden, you are enjoying it, and there is no pain..

wonderful what endorphins can do for ya.....

even more wonderful what the big O can do for ya......

Right now, while you are ill, life is all about you.....

it just is, you cant help it. Your husband is feeling

left out...... that is a man thing. He is also feeling like

he cant help you, and this is hard for a man, and even

harder for him to admit. So, they act out....

Give him alittle attention......tell him his support, and

love is really wonderful and helps you so much, and

it is so comforting and makes you feel so good and

secure.

We have to train our men.......

We teach people how to love us......

and we have to let them teach us how to love them......

God Bless YOU ~ Luvya~Dede

Cherie- I cry everyday!!!! I've been watching re-runs of the OC,

because I never watched the show when it was actually on! Since I've

gotten sick, I watch a lot of TV. Anyway, that's not my point, my

point is that I cry EVERY episode of the OC!! Isn't that funny? My

husband thinks I've gone all whacky! If only he could understand how

emotionally taxing this is on me. It's a way to release, a necessary one!

Love, Krista

So, I am 29 years old. And, at 29 years old most of you know that ALL

of your friends are pregnant. I had 16 friends this past summer that

either had a baby or are pregnant. Hubby and I have been trying for

quite some time, no luck. It is truly heartbreaking. I can feel for

both of you. Adding that to what I've already been going through, it's

no wonder I'm depressed.
