Guest guest Posted January 4, 2003 Report Share Posted January 4, 2003 Wendi, There is a video series out called " Signing Time " web site is: http://www.signingtime.com/. It was made (very professionally) by a mom who had a child who was born deaf and also had a child who had normal hearing. She wanted her younger son to be able to use sign to communicate with her older daughter. Her research shows that learning to sign at a very early age promotes lots of other benefits, including being able to communicate with the deaf. Her videos show children signing and speaking the word that is being signed, in many different situations, some of it is to music. The mom's opening and closing songs, sung by her (very professionally), are quite catchy. My 6 year old daughter, who learned about 7 signs when she was younger, is now more interested in signing, even though she now uses about 75 words in a day, about half of them are understandable to us, and really enjoys watching and imitating the video. I am now learning more signs too. I highly recommend it. Kids really like to watch and hear kids on videos and it is a great learning tool.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2003 Report Share Posted January 4, 2003 ABOUT DOGS FOR KIDS I would have to second Traci's fantastic advice. I too have heard fro years how wonderful dogs are for kids in general and especially kids with special needs. So finally once we had a stable place to live with enough room we decided to look for a dog. We wanted a young one so it could grow with the boys and they wouldn't be dealing with " loss " too soon. The librarian's sister in town had just rescued a wonderful golden 9month old male dog, a mixed lab. he was friendly and energetic and potty-trained and my older son got attached right away. however, my son with global dyspraxia, even at allmost six yrs. old did not have good balance. the dog was untrained in every other respect....didn't obey any commands or come when he was called and jumped on everyone to say hello in his exuberance. So..you can imagine the scenario.....after getting knocked flat by this dog a few times, with the dog right on top of him, my son soon became terrified in his own home, refusing to come into the room if the dog was there,hiding in closets. My husband and I did not pick up on how bad it was for our son until......we took the dog to the vet after 12 days to get checked and shots, etc. and the dog tried to bite the vet and the vet said he thought it may be a lab mixed with a pit bull and it was not a family dog and we should return it right away!!!! My husband and older son were devastated, crying and sobbing and on the other side of the room my son with apraxia was smiling a huge smile, looking out the window and in a sing song voice saying " la la la la " . that is when we stood back and realized how traumatic it had been for our kid! He was very afraid of any dogs after those twelve days. But......a year and a half later we were offered another free dog, a six year old purebred, Llewellin English Setter, who is truly a dream come true!!!! What convinced us to try again was when we went for a visit before getting her and our now 7 1/2 yr. old was trying not to touch her, this dog sat down, wagged his tail and waited quietly until Micah got the courage up to reach over and pat her! She is so gentle and calm even when he bugs her to death! Micah is now all over her and talks to her a lot and is constantly playing with her and yesterday I let him take her for a walk (in the driveway only) by himself and he was so proud! So, it is definitely worth it with the RIGHT dog! On the flip side, I have never had a dog in my life and it is quite a SHOCK to me: the expense is OUTRAGEOUS and it is a LOT OF WORK! We have only had her seven weeks and have already spent over a hundred dollars on her!! I guess prone to ear infections?? And the poop in the yard is driving me insane (especially here inthe frozen north where it freezes to the snow almost the minute it lands! ha ha). So...there are pros and cons to everything....weigh the decision carefully....my son is so much work by himself that adding a dog has increased my work load to an extent that I could not have handled earlier in our lives...but every family situation is different and so is every dog! Best wishes making your decision, Carol ----- Original Message ----- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 Yes, along with increased Magnesium and l-Taurine. It's hard to say if one is more important than the other. Brains need effential fatty acids whether they are prone to seizures or not. mjh In a message dated 3/18/03 4:24:50 PM Eastern Standard Time, writes: > Date: Mon, 17 Mar 2003 15:50:28 EST > From: PL9071@... > Subject: Re: Digest Number 1061 > > MJH > Have you seen a reduction in seizures? > thank Lori > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 All brains need all the B vitamins, in balance. The Bs are also necessary cofactors to help make many other things - like Magnesium -- work. mjh In a message dated 3/18/03 4:24:50 PM Eastern Standard Time, writes: > Date: Mon, 17 Mar 2003 23:07:20 EST > From: 42122@... > Subject: Re: Digest Number 1061 > > Vitamin b-6 was given to me after my brain surgery to help control the > nervous system > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2003 Report Share Posted July 29, 2003 Thanks for info on Polysorbate. I'm making linen spray right now. One spray at a time to perfect. Then I would like to work on body spray and such. I had read somewhere about not being able to sell alcohol based products so I need recipe ideas that do not include alcohol. About soap. Does anyone use crockpot soap recipes? I found some on another board. Thanks --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 If you HAVE had revision surgery, when and why did you take this risk? Was it worth it? Hi, this is Marty-age 49, aka Quasimama, from Tucson AZ. I had my original scoliosis surgery, uninstrumentated, by Dr McGinn in Bangor Maine in 1967, fused T4 to L1. I had my revision surgery done by Dr. Dennis Crandall in Phoenix AZ on December 2, 2003, fusion continued to S1 with instrumentation. I chose Dr. Crandall as he had experience with revision and was one of the first doctors approved to use BMP. I have very mixed feelings about my results, now 16 months post-op. Granted, my pain is minimal now, on no pain meds except for over the counter, but I also am much stricter on my activities. Where before surgery, I only had flatback symptoms by end of the work day, I now am in the " ten after six " position within minutes of waking up. Crandall's PA, , who is the person one sees 90% of the time one goes in for follow-up, just keeps telling me my hip flexors are tight and to keep stretching. I keep thinking, this is NOT my fault for lack of TRYING to stand upright!. Also, when I asked her if they would do more surgery to correct the fusion failure that resulted at S1, she said no. One other comment, of ALL the Orthopedic doctors I have seen in almost 30 years, living in 4 states, Crandall is the only one that NEVER once looked at my actual back! ... only the xrays. Well, except for taking the " before " photos immediately before surgery, which, by the way, he never took AFTER photos. Does that tell me something? Has anyone out there seen continued improvement this far after the surgery? Is there still hope for me, or only more surgery if I can't cope with this? It is very depressing to catch a glimpse of myself in storefront windows... or to see people that are 20 or 30 years older than me just zipping along walking totally upright. I am going to give myself 'til the end of this year to decide if I should pursue looking into further surgery. I just can't imagine living like this for another 40 or more years! Take care, all! ... and " Hokey-Pokey! " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 Hi Debbie, I will reply after each of your questions: ------------------------------------------------------- Do you mean to say your hyperthyroid was treated by doctors recovered, but came back again when you start to take VCO? ANS. I was a teenager then. And yes, the doctor gave me liquid iodine to drop on my drinks each meal for a year. This i did religiously to avoid surgery. I can't tell if it came back because of the vco. Other factors could have caused it to come back too. The rbd oil you mentioned is not coconut oil? ANS. The RBD Oil is coconut oil indeed. Are you still taking pill? ANS. No longer take it. I did take it for a year which is the normal duration. How long did you take the 3 to 5 tablespoon of VCO? ANS. three years. At this period what is the reaction, any sore, red spots, dryness in your throat? ANS. I did have some sore, dryness in my throat and red spots even before i took VCO because i am DIABETIC. And I am also allergic to mold. And do have arthritis/rheumatism. Is the return of your hyperthyroid due to RBD oil instead? ANS. I really can't tell coz now I am nearly 60. It could also be triggered by the herbal drinks I took plus the vegetables i've been eating. What do you think if you increase your VCO and also replace it with the RBD cooking oil? ANS. I can't figure out what you mean. Increase vco is fine. But too much is also not too good. Go by the daily recommended dosage. Replacing intake of vco with rbd is another thing. RBD has less of the other good acids that diminish when going through heat. Lauric acid may not be affected by heat though. I suppose it may work. Sorry, too much questions. My friend have Hypothyroid, she used VCO for 3 weeks and experience dryness and red spot on the throat. ANS. This could be hexheimer or the cleansing process done by the vco for her body. After that it gone and she says she feels better, she reducing her T4 slowly and gone without it for more days to see if the throat balloon again. Waiting for the report. Hypothyroid ... shouldn't it have lower T4? Why is she reducing her T4 intake? (Hey, members, please help me on this, am i correct?) My fat maid was always eagle for food 2 hrs before meals, when my family convert to VCO as cooking oil and consume direct she followed. She feels very good, all her pain on the body, lumps on breast go off. Her eagle for food also gone, now she eat little and sometime don't eat, she lost weight. I wonder is her syndromes due to hyperthyroid and the VCO work on her? ANS. One sure sign of hyperthyroid is falling hair in great number....and weight loss....check the shower floor and the floor where she combs her hair specially after she washes it. If there is lots of hair, then she needs a test. On the other hand, craving for food can also be attributed as a sign of diabetes. Ger her checked for this too. OR, you have to consider that she is physically active as a maid, moving around too much, which depletes energy. She needs to recharge. Give her snacks. I hope I answered your queries. Good luck. __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 _____ From: Coconut Oil [mailto:Coconut Oil ] On Behalf Of melly banagale Sent: Saturday, July 22, 2006 3:28 AM Coconut Oil Subject: Re: Digest Number 1062 Hi , Thank you so much for your time to answer my questions. So are you still taking VCO for DIABETIC, allergic arthritis/rheumatism? My friend reduced her T4, replace by increase VCO cause she wanted to see the effects of VCO. If she does not ballon without the T4, she can just go without it which means she is cured. I suggested you to increase the VCO and replace it for cooking, because my experience with the Taiwan master who uses CO for treatments did that. Her treatments is free of charge and sometime even give CO for the patients to bring home. Her method is to drink a glass everytime and use it for cooking. No doubts the website have been suggesting a tablespoon 2 to 3 times a day, but according to the master this is drinking too little. Her answer is drinking too little may help you too improve very slowly on a problem and but the other parts of the body may have other side effects. I saw her terminal diseases patients taking the treatments, it is very tough and really suffers but they gain their health and walk out happy after half year or some even 1 year. I will be writing a book on this, visiting her again to collect some photos of the past treatments.
