Dear ,

I sure understand where you're coming from! How 'bout I send you a

nice big feather fan (sorry, can't help with the cabana boy) and I'll

go scrounge up a couple of chickens for you? I hope things go better.

Take care,

Judi

confirmation or at least hopefully they can help me deal with the problems......

I am from New Zealand and is 10 years old, and it is finally great to be

able to realise his behaviour is not just come from me being a bad parent. I was

really thinking it must have been me and the way I was bringing him up even

though his twin sister is fine with no real major problems.

Now that I am getting some help I am hoping that I can now have some help with

dealing with situations and have a somewhat relaxing time ahead.

Anyway just wanted to come in and say Hi and thanks as I have learnt so much

over the past few days reading old posts etc.... and it is so cool to know it is

not just my son who has these issues, and I am not alone.

Cheers Jackie

was all our fault for his behavior.

Hi Holly,

Yes it is great to know what we are not to blame. has had it pretty

tough, he also has Perthes Disease, and was wheelchair bound and on crutches

for 3 years. He was on full restrictions for physical activity for nearly 5

years. I felt his behaviour was because we gave in to him a lot throughout

this time.

He also has dyslexia and audio processing disorder. But I am hoping there

will be some light now at the end of the tunnel.....

Cheers Jackie

Hi. My name is Ann- I was diagnosed in 94 and went through the entire 48 weeks of interferon/ribavarin treatment. Within the first 6 weeks the virus was gone. At the end of treatment ( a month after) it had RELAPSED. I was devastated. So now, they tell me - wait - in 5 years there may be a cure. Yeah right.

Anyway, hope to find some people to share with on here . TY for listening.

Joanne,

So glad to hear you are OK, eventhough your Freezer stuff is not! I can certainly feel withyou, for all the work it takes to grow vegetables and fill the freezer. I admire all the people who have the courage to live in areas that are regularly bombarded by nature. Now that I think of it who isn't?? But maybe some areas do not get blasted as often as Fla and the southern states.

If and when OR gets the Big Earthquake, we will just simply ( or not so simply) slide into the ocean, glub, glub.............. NOt to mention the Tsunami that could easily wipe out the coast. All this nature stuff is better ignored ( at least by me), it is too scary! Clara from OR

[ ] Hi all

First.Pain meds. No you can't go without for that long.you can also get VERY ill be not slowly reducing any pain med ( or any med for that matter! ) Well.we got our electric back.and I of course lost all my food in the freezers. Not a happy person. I had worked hard growing the veggs then freezing them and had the freezer full.but 4 1/2 days with no power finished them all...all in the compost pile now. Very upset.. not to mention was planning on being able to save some money this winter by not having to buy so many veggys. We went shopping Sat night.and had to re buy all those things like mayo etc.. along with some meat and stuff. But.we were blessed that not a single tree fell on our house and we lost LOTS of trees. My girlfriend prayer for the entire time that our birch trees right next to the house wouldn't fall on us. and they didn't. Amazing as bir h trees are not sturdy. We lost many other birches.and a big apple.along with a multitude of other trees....................... Joanne

Oh Joanne, what a blessing you are OK, but how frustrating that you lost all of your food. People who don't have a garden or can, or freeze, can't always understand the work one puts into doing all of that! But at least you are safe.

Now about the pain meds...I am finding that I am either adicted to the pain meds of they are not working. It seems that when it is time for some more meds, I get all shivery and cold and shake and shake. I just cannot get addicted to this stuff, but the pain fromt he back surgery is driving me nuts. Is this common? Or is it just in my head? i really don't know who to turn to!

Niki,

Normally after first getting the band or having an adjustment, the

band will fit big. Not huge, but loose. The rule of thumb is that

it should not move more than an inch or cover the eyes. My son has

gone through 3 adjustments and each time, for about a week-10 days,

it is loose. The band will slip forward when he looks down and will

shift side to side on his head. After a little bit of growth, it

stops moving and fits well by the next appointment. The band cannot

fit tightly after the adjustment or there will be no room for the

head to grow and round out! My son has had his starband for nearly 3

months and we have rarely had any red marks but his head has still

grown properly and we should be done next week.
