Guest guest Posted August 9, 1999 Report Share Posted August 9, 1999 Kathleen Whitehill, Write your congressmembers and ask that they co-sponsor one or both of the bills introduced in congress to stop the anthrax shots. The bills are HR2543 and HR2548 and request Congressman Steve Buyer agree to hold a hearing on the AVIP (Anthrax Vaccination Immunization Program) when the House returns from recess in September. My son is a Marine at 29 Palms. He refused the shot was court martialed and given 30 days in the brig and a bad conduct discharge. He still feels he made the right decision and so do we. He should be home this weekend and he will still have his health. refused non-judicial punishment. There is no reason to go through the cuts in pay and rank plus extra duty and all the other things that go with the article 15. The outcome will be the same. He can refuse the Article 15. Hope this helps. Deanna Austin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2000 Report Share Posted May 30, 2000 Stania, There are companies that have safer sealers that you can use to stop the outgassing. The company that I order our interior housepaint from is AFM. Alot of the places that sell environmentally safer products(N.E.E.D.S, etc) should carry them. I can also get their phone # if you'd like information from the company I mentioned. Take Care, Cheryl Hi, i seem going into a relaps. The cause, I guess, might be an exposure to some odour (if this is possible?). We had a new piece of furniture installed in our bedroom. It is made from chipboard and smells like wooden splinters. This smell is very unpleasant. In the evening I got a headache and sore eyes and nausea. in the morning I had o take a painkiller for headache and felt weak. Also experience bronchial hyperactivity and NMH problems (which I haven't had since starting Piracetam-only very very minor - sometimes). Any advice about how to reverse relapsing and also, if the furniture is the trigger (I heard that it can contain formaldehyde), what to do with it? All coments and ideas welcome.

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2000 Report Share Posted June 2, 2000 Hi Stania, I hope you are starting to feel better. I think the most important thing now is to stop the exposure to the chemicals right away. It sounds like you are working on that. If someone can seal the exposed surfaces that are off-gassing, it would probably help considerably. You may want to be cautious for awhile about exposure to all volatile organic compounds (VOCs), as you may be sensitized for awhile. This would include exposure to ANY chemical odors and fragrances. It's hard to do, but it's important, so you don't start a downward cycle with this. Ken remembers someone suggesting " Alka Seltzer Gold " for MCS symptoms. I haven't tried this yet myself, but I plan to. " ACTIVE INGREDIENTS: Each tablet contains: Heat treated sodium bicarbonate 958 mg, citric acid 832 mg, potassium bicarbonate 312 mg. Alka-Seltzer Effervescent Antacid in water contains principally the antacids sodium citrate and potassium citrate. " I also have found that a cup of coffee has helped with the respiratory symptoms. I don't drink coffee regularly any more, so it may just be an excuse to have some, but in any case, it seems to help somewhat.

Guest guest Posted June 3, 2000 Report Share Posted June 3, 2000 Hi Laurie and all, >Hi Stania, >I hope you are starting to feel better. Yes, I do. I followed your recommendations andl locked the bedroom (windowes opened). I felt relieved after a walk when I came home and when I read Ken's post, I went for another one in the evening. The headache and nausea faded away, still have breathing problems but milder. Also swollen nasal cavity and eyes. But much better now. Do you think anti asthmatic inhalators could help? ( mean the spray meds) > >I think the most important thing now is to stop the exposure to the >chemicals right away. It sounds like you are working on that.

I didn't know about MCS because it was not my problem. that's why I mad esome silly things I would never repeat :-) Before I got your letter, I went for a walk, felt better and bought a bath oil (wonderful smell, just loved it). Back at home, exposed again to the fumes I couldn'use it. Now I know it was a mistake. I am going to get Alka setzer on Monday and try to arrange an app. with my allergologist.

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2000 Report Share Posted October 12, 2000 Ai Lay, First of all, Hi! Now, does Shuxin snore at all? Does she have periods during sleep where she seems to stop breathing for a few seconds and then snorts or gasps air? These issues along with restless and interrupted sleep can be indicative of sleep apnea. Nick had apnea and after T & A surgery he shows no signs of apnea. If you think this may be the case with Shuxin talk to your pediatrician and see if you can schedule a sleep study. It also may be reflux. Does Shuxin eat or drink right before going to sleep? Defiantly mention this to your doctor. He may feel it is just a phase she is going through...maybe nightmares or something simple that is not truly medical. Good luck and let us know how she is doing. Bonnie from Long Island Mom to -10, twins and (ds)-2 1/2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2001 Report Share Posted July 19, 2001 Hi ... Yep, I would take it all to them and let them copy it, but I would stay there while they do it. Documentation has a way of disappearing when you leave it with the schools to be copied. So, are you saying you were happy with the results of the IEP or with the idea that you have their ideas in writing and a starting place to work from? Let us know how it all shakes out. This may be a new strategy to consider! LOL Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 19, 2001 Report Share Posted July 19, 2001 Hi guys, A quick update on what is going on in our neck of the woods. As most of you know, Matt has been homeschooling since the end of May. We are trying to get him back into school by the beginning of the new school year. I talked to a neighbor who is an attorney, and he is looking for someone to refer me to who has experience with special education law. In the mean time, he wrote a letter to the school, and mailed it without me proofreading. Between the time that I spoke with him and the letter went out, I had spoken with the school and they verbally told me that the date they had set for the IEP would not work, as a number of the participants would not be available. They would let me know about a date. I was waiting to hear from them, the date for the IEP came, and they had the meeting. They called me and asked if I was planning on showing up. (In the letter from the attorney, he said I would be there, but we had spoken and they told me that they would not be able to do it-but, they did speak to me before they recieved this letter. I should have clearified it. I didnt') I couldnt' make it, so they had the meeting without me. I actually liked it better, as I have a copy of the IEP that they developed, and we meet tomorrow to discuss it. I have an advocate coming with me. In the letter from the attorney, he said that we had a " couple of inches " of paperwork (true), documentation of problems from the past 2 years. They want copies of all of this BEFORE we meet tomorrow. He told me to give them copies. I dont' mind. (Some of this is my documentation to you guys about what had been going on. I didnt' keep a " diary " but I did tell you all and another on-line friend everytime I spoke with them. I compiled what I said in all of these for a timeline of what has been happening). I just dont' know why they need this kind of stuff before we meet for an IEP meeting. If we were going to court, fine. But, for an IEP meeting? Part of the documentation are the notebooks that we exchanged, and the daily note reports they sent me. My question is, Should I just take this stuff up there and let them copy it all? THat is what I am thinking I should do. I don't think I should be paying probably over 20.00 to copy all of this stuff. Any suggestions? ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less! Join Juno today!

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2001 Report Share Posted July 19, 2001 Ok, guys, here is what I did. I called my advocate, and she suggested that they dont' need all of my " personal notes " if we are going for an IEP meeting. If we were sueing, we would have to provide, 5 days before the hearing, any information to be entered. I wrote the following letter, and hand delivered it to the new principal, with the attachment. Tell me what you think: Mrs. Medjorie 2080 Desert Shadow Trail , NV 89012 This letter is in response to your request for information I had provided to my attorney concerning 's education at Vanderburg Elementary School. This information is referenced in my attorney's letter to you. I appreciate your concern regarding and assuring that he is afforded an appropriate education in the least restrictive environment, and I look forward to working with you to this end. All of the information that I provided to my attorney is available in 's confidential folder, with the exception of my own personal notes. Since we are now working together to move forward, I am including a list of some of the suggestions and questions I have with the new IEP. I assume that this will be the subject of our meeting tomorrow. Thank you for your time and co-operation. Enclosure (1) Matt's IEP concerns: Goal #2 Can we define the " primary level " Ie 1st, 2nd, 3rd grade. Can we have a goal on fluency and how will we determine fluency? Goal #3 Math Need present level for time telling? Visual schedule on desk to help with concept Goal #4 ative vs Parallel play-if he is cooperatively playing, do we need a benchmark for parallel play? Isn't this going backwards? Goal #5 Need present levels on phone number, address, responding ot social interactions, verbal messages. We need some kind of spelling goal. #5 in special factors indicates that he needs AT, but it is not addressed in IEP. Accomodations: Some suggestions: Visual schedules PECS Person who knows Matt to pick him up from the bus every day-if substitute aide is necessary, either teacher or special ed teacher should pick him up and take him to the line. If possible, notify mom by phone the morning of the aide's absence, so I can tell him before he gets on the bus. Behavior plan needs to focus on the positive. ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less!

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2002 Report Share Posted March 19, 2002 Hi All, I missed the posts this weekend but I was working anyway so it wasn't too bad. I went to see Zeb's pyschologist today and was recapping the past few weeks. He was quite upset that the pediatrician never filed an abuse complaint. I didn't give her much info to go on. I questioned these dots that were all over Zeb's face from his cheekbones and on his forehead. I didn't know what they were and wasn't sure if he had developed high blood pressure etc. I was concerned because of the outburst on that day and didn't know if this had something to do with it. The office did tell me that it was called alpica, broken blood vessels, and if more appeared to call them and go to the er. I really didn't exactly know what had happened that day and if they held him too tightly etc. I stayed with him at school for the rest of the day and did show the teacher his face. The both of us had no idea what it was and she never offered anything. I did find out they held him inproperly. The DMR was coming this afternoon for a yearly follow up and they filed a complaint of abuse. The pschologists recommended that I apologize in a letter for leaving the meeting that day and call for a PPT meeting asking for an independant educational consultant. I have been asking for the past 3 yrs but now I will head for due process. I have a friend also with a child with special needs and she feels that I need not apologize for anything and the school may use that against me. What's your input? I walked out of the meeting because the topic had turned to a placement issue rather than finding an appropriate behavioral plan. The central office did not ask the teacher to speak about the issues or try to redirect her. I felt I wasn't about to debate this in a meeting only a PPT meeting where I have procedural rights. I have all the answers for everyone else but can't seem to advocate myself. I am quite concerned about the Zeb's safety. Charlyne Mom to Zeb 9 DS/OCD ?

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2002 Report Share Posted March 19, 2002 Hi Joan, Thanks for the advice. I did have an agenda the day I went to the meeting but I was so upset with the rantings of the teacher and the special ed dept. not redirecting her I just got up and left. The behaviorist was present at this meeting and was solely for the purpose of critiquing the behavioral plan. I honestly felt like everything was in slow motion. I did say that I wasn't going there and then stood up. Everybody just stared at me. I have never done this before but I new I had reached my peak. I need to know if you think I should send a letter of apology for leaving the meeting and incorporate that into a request for a PPT meeting to ask for the educational consultant?

If not then forget it and move on to requesting what you need. As far as the red dots, are they the size of pin heads? Really tiny? got those following his heart catheterization- all over his body. He has gotten them after every surgery he has had. He also gets them on his face if he gets really out of control. Of course the anticoagulant medication and the fact that he has very fair skin all contribute. If he was upset and got restrained -even the right way- the frustration and straining could cause them. JMHO Did the dr. say what the ER would do? Just document it? I would definitely have it recorded if your son doesn't have a history of out of control behavior.

The DMR filed a child abuse complaint today. The school staff used inappropriate restraints causing the dots.My worse fear is going to school and finding him dead. They are also not following the behavioral plan and punishing him twice for the same infraction. I suppose their thinking was to really make it count. The pediatrician did document it. I didn't exactly know what the pediatrician meant when she said if it got worse. I am reallly not too happy that the complaint was filed but I was told that they have to report anything that may cause harm to any child intentionally or not. If they didn't file it the psychologist would have. Whatever relationship I did have is down the tubes once the office of protection and advocacy shows up at the school.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2002 Report Share Posted March 19, 2002 Bring an agenda...the list of things that need to be discussed about *this* placement. Let them know that you believe in doing first things first. And until these things are really investigated, placement shouldn't be discussed. Or, tell them in writing that you would like to have placement be a completely different meeting if appropriate. Say something about needing to compartmentalize the breadth of the discussion so you can truly focus on what's best for Zeb. The more you can say " what's best for Zeb " and focus them back to him and away from their own personal agendas the better off you are. " how dose that affect Zeb? " Try starting the meeting with a list of " what is working " and " what is not working " then you try to find out why the things that are going well are, and whether or not there are similarities in the need for the what isn't working category. Vocus your comments on how Zeb wil respond to things. Say Zeb's name *all*U the time. I know what you mean about having a tough time advocating for yourself. It's *hard* to see through the mess, listen, *and* talk. The more you can separate all the different roles, the better of fyou are. So get them talking about what works and what doesn't work--practice some probing quesitons to help them describe these situations. Try to hear the situation the way Zeb does. then move to looking for commonalities. then brainstorming ideas/solutions then how can we incorporate some of these ideas How will we document the affect? When will we meet again to discuss it and what kind of data will you bring? And if they push a placement discussion, try this: We may end up discussing placement, but if we don't understand *why* these things are happening, the next placement will not be better. Don't you think it's in Zeb's best interest for us to hunker down and tear this apart? good luck. HUGs, j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with your friend who says they may use it against you. Besides, you're human; there's only so much one person can take. Have they done an fba on Zeb? They are not allowed to even discuss change in placement until that has been done. My thoughts however, are that if Zeb is being abused, you might welcome a change in placement. I think you need to find out who is doing this. Got any spies at the school you can trust? {{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} Charlyne!! This sounds like a nightmare!!!

I do have spies but the school is doing inappropriate holds and shouldn't be holding anyway. They documented it in a note themselves. I arrived at school within minutes so I had a good idea of the situation. The office of protection and advocacy will investigate initiated by the DMR. They will have to answer their questions in detail. I would sent him someplace else but I don't have any options. Charlyne Mom to Zeb 9 DS/OCD ?

I decided that I would detail and basically recapp and then ask for a PPT meeting. Charlyne Mom to Zeb 9 DS/OCD ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Joan, No I didn't but I did make a point to show the teacher. I did tell her I was calling the pediatrician. They are aware and I did question the central office on what was appropriate. They were upset that the staff was restraining to begin with. I am going to wait for the investigation and their questions will be no cake walk. Charlyne Mom to Zeb 9 DS/OCD ?
