Guest guest Posted February 22, 2003 Report Share Posted February 22, 2003 I'm so grateful for this list!! I am waiting for my enzymes to come in the mail. My problem is, I have had my son on supplements for about a month (Super NuThera, DMG, 5HTP). He barely eats as it is, hates the GF/CF diet, and now it is a HUGE battle to get him to drink the juice with the supplements in it. This morning I tried to get him to swallow an Omega3 capsule, and he would not swallow it. I know I can mix the enzymes with different things, and hopefully he will take them, but how can I get the other vitamins into him? And, since I am having so much trouble, which are the absolute, most important ones for him to have? Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks, e, mom to Scout 4.10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might realize that one or more of the supplements causes him to feel bad, causing him to not eat much either, so he does not want to take any of them. >>I know I > can mix the enzymes with different things, and hopefully he will take > them, but how can I get the other vitamins into him? And, since I am > having so much trouble, which are the absolute, most important ones > for him to have? I would stop all the other supplements. Just add enzymes, one at a time, see how it goes. Then, if you want, consider adding one of the supplements from before. My opinion is that there is NO supplement which is absolutely 100% important for any child to have. But certain kids do appear to need certain supplements. You won't know about your own child until you add them one at a time and see if you notice any changes.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Was she in the school last year? And she has noticeably regressed? It is very possible she can have autism as well as many other " labels, " so she should be covered under the autism suppliant if she meets the criteria for autism and then she would be labeled also multiply disabled. Do you have the results of the Full and Complete Individual Evaluation. The school has to test in ALL areas of Suspected disability -- that means they have to test for " autism " and if she meets it then she is covered under it. If you don't agree with their evaluation, then you can get an outside one at district expense. I would need to have a look at the test results -- all test results that have been done by the school or outside. It is very important for the school tohave assessed for " autism. " Did they do an evaluation for that? If you want to talk via phone you can e-mail off-list with your #. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 I'm in Pennsylvania,and there are some differences between states, but your child can have more than one label. If there is any scores which show mental retardation, schools usually list that as the primary disability. This can help with gaining access to needed services, especially when the child is older, and transitions to adult services. The term mental retardation, or MR, is being replaced with terms such " as a person with... " + " Intellectual disability " , " cognitive disability " , " developmental delays " , etc., due to changing ideas regarding the stigma of the term, being politically correct,using people first language,etc. As a parent of a young adult, my advice would be: Don't get " hung up " on the labels, just use them to access the necessary, appropriate services. Check out info on the slaw website, and Google for additional sites with information regarding FAPE,LRE,the Gaskins case,etc. ABA is probably one service you might want. Many parents see improvement with floortime/Greenspan type programs, too. Have you started any bio-med? That was helpful for my child.
