Guest guest Posted December 17, 2001 Report Share Posted December 17, 2001 Hi, all; Been a long while since we checked in. Our son Ben turned nine not long ago. Birthdays bring up old questions. In Ben's case, still very little progress apparent in cognition or speech and language, though he is healthy, stronger every day (great swimmer), happy and full of love. I'm thinking about TNI again. Anybody have recent experience, positive or negative with TNI? We tried it with Ben for a couple of months when he was three, with no obvious results. I'm not inclined to try therapies that haven't been tested and verified, but after 7 years with little apparent growth, I'm wondering whether this might help. Appreciate your thoughts!

Yeah I really had a good time when I went to the lock in, but I'm still sore and achy so I don't know what that's about. I'll be on a lookout for the card.

The dr. said the fish oil tastes terrible, so I doubt I could mix it in food like I do the enzymes. BTW, I don`t know what CLO is, you referred to that to, but that was not mentioned in my e-mail. Whatever it is, I don`t use it. Thanks. Debbie in PA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2002 Report Share Posted September 16, 2002 One thing that works with us, if eggs are tolerated, is mixing it with scrambled eggs. The temp doesn't get above 300 degrees (which would break down the Omega 3s) and the eggs hide the taste. Tonya Dillingham Mothersheart1996@...

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2003 Report Share Posted June 21, 2003 " The instructor is saying that an slp she knows claims that it is normal to lose speech when learning signs but that it comes back. Has anyone heard of this? " Yes - I was a teacher of the hearing impaired and am now mom to two (out of three) boys with speech issues (my youngest has verbal apraxia). It IS normal when first learning sign language to momentarily lose some speech, but this is due to the fact that the children are so excited with finally finding a successful method of communication that they put all their concentration into learning as many signs as they can. Once they feel comfortable with using signs, the sign language actually accelerates their speech because now they have a better understanding of the language and can use the signs as a bridge to help them with their speech. (It's similar to when children are first learning motor skills such as crawling, walking, climbing... their speech often takes a back-burner to the new, more exciting skill. Once that new skill is mastered, they go back to where they left off.) Another benefit is that using sign language stimulates a different part of the brain than speech does, so now you've got an additional part of the brain working to figure out how to communicate. You also don't need to fear that by learning sign language your child will not want to talk - children learn quickly that signs may work well within their family, but most other people don't know it. The need to communicate is so strong that they'll figure out that speech is the easier way to go. I hope this helps. Amy on asthomason@...

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 Hi. I recently read a brief article in our local coop newsletter extoling the vitues of pomegranate juice. According to the article, " Clinical Nutrition reports a study showing that drinking a small amount of the juice every day can reverse arteriosclerosis of the carotid arteries that carry blook from the neck to the brain. " AND " Dr. Aviram, a chemist at Lipid Research Laboratory, says the potential exists for high-risk patients to be spared bypass surgery simply by drinking pomegranate juice [Healthnotes Newswire, July 8, 2004.] Sounds worth looking into. I don't know who Clinical Nutrition is -- a magazine or an organization. It is shown in Italics in the article. The juice is now available at my regular grocery stores, sold in a funny shaped bottle under the brand name of Pom. You can get it straight or combined with tangerine, cherry, or mango. It is expensive, but definitely worth a try. FYI, other good things about pomegranate juice: - high in antioxidants, including ellagic acid which may prevent premature aging and is a cancer fighter - high in phosphorus and fiber (the fruit) - also contains calcium, iron, potassium, niacin, and ascorbic acid - in oriental medicine, the juice is a remedy for bladder disturbances, worms in the intestinal tract, gum disease, and ulcers of the mouth and throat - anti-inflammatory and astringent properties - the ground up seeds make a great bath scrub Hope you find something that works for you.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2005 Report Share Posted December 11, 2005 Hi..I also have pain in my liver area. I asked the doctor..said it could be 'gas' or yes..the surrounding organs pressing on the liver if it is already swollen. I have lived with this hepatitis for over 30 years..I have been in touch with my liver and how it feels depending on what is going on. I have come to believe that when i am under stress, THAT plays a big part. In this last year i have been under constant stress and have had more pain than ever. It has to do with my daughter..She has a terrible emotional effect on me..I can be feeling fine..and as soon as i walk away from her house after another battle..there goes my right side hurting again. So i am convinced there is a connection. Stress in VERY unhealthy for us or anyone with autoimmune disorders. Try not to dwell on it too much..as long as you are doing okay otherwise. take care, -Sue In a message dated 12/11/2005 11:01:02 AM Pacific Standard Time, Hepatitis C writes: Message: 3 Date: Sun, 11 Dec 2005 03:41:37 -0000 From: " eric " <1122snyder@...> Subject: Re: Upper right abdominal pain Hi ,Annett without knowing your liver statis its hard to take a shot at your problem but generaly as your liver swells it puhes on the surronding organs so if your liver is swolen you may need to take action to reduce Email me for some.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Hi, Everyone: I am just checking emails and was struck by a phrase one of them said. That our autistic kids are also humans with feelings and thoughts. Sometimes, we have to to remind ourselves that these kids are just kids,too. I catch myself sometimes forgetting that. I get so caught up in trying to get to learn whatever I can teach him that I forget he is also a child who gets tired, and scared, and can sense when you are just doing it for the heck of it. Hope you all had a merry Christmas and a joyful New Year. We all got sick with couogh and colds but was the last one to catch it and then he was only sick for 2 days!
