Guest guest Posted January 18, 2001 Report Share Posted January 18, 2001 From: mik@... Sent: Thursday, January 18, 2001 11:02 AM Subject: need advice hi , I have a 4 yr old son who was diagnosed with probably having apraxia, this year he has been getting speech therapy from the school system, the only time they could give him was 1:00, which is after 3 hrs of preschool, I have been trying since sept to get it changed, but they won't. Anyway, his therapist felt he wasn't working well with her and asked if he could have additional testing, I agreed and they did a Battelle Developmental test, I just got the report and was astounded at the results- they had his social level at 26 months and his gross motor at 27 months, when I asked about the testing she told me things like - he didn't state his last name when asked, (it's Mikolajczyk by the way) and many other things that involve language. She told me that his language level is not taken into consideration at all when given this test and now they want to put him in a special preschool with children that have a variety of problems. In early December, because I felt he wasn't getting much help from his speech teacher I took him out of one of his sessions (he was going twice a week) and put him in private one on one therapy and he is doing fantastic- his therapist is wonderful, I have now scheduled an ot eval for Feb 8th with Children's Healthcare because I feel one on one works best for . I am just completely disallusioned with the school system. For the clincher, yesterday we got registration papers from his preschool for next year and the last paragraph of the letter says " As a small private preschool, our resources are limited and we have found that we cannot meet the needs of those children who do not fall within the developmental norms for their agre group" I was shocked , this is our church preschool that has been attending for three years, so now I feel they want him out anyway. Any advice ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 Hi All I had a gallbladder attack a few days ago,and drank a couple doses of epsom salt to open up the ducts so the stones could pass through.It seemed to work for a day and then I started getting a very dull sharp pain again in the abdomen under my right rib,and also in the middle back area.It feels as though one is stuck.Can I do a flush without drinking all the apple juice first?I am in a lot of pain and would appreciate your advice.I would look through the archives but it is very hard to sit here now as it is and write this.Thankyou for your help and this group .

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2005 Report Share Posted November 22, 2005 The magnesium does 2 things: It relaxes the smooth muscle to reduce cramping and potentially allow stones to pass, and it brings water to the bowel to flush it out opening the path for fast elimination of bile and crepitis when flushing. It does not flush stones. The flushing will happen by stimulating the flow of bile from the liver and gallbladder by taking the God awful amounts of oil. you can attempt a flush without the apple juice and may be very successful, however the apple juice helps to soften whatever mass may be there. Think of the difference between the comfort of a hard dry bowel movement and a soft moist one. ----- Original Message ----- From: <mailto:mashelle68@...> gallstones <mailto:gallstones > Sent: Monday, November 21, 2005 3:59 PM Subject: Need Advice Hi All I had a gallbladder attack a few days ago,and drank a couple doses of epsom salt to open up the ducts so the stones could pass through.It seemed to work for a day and then I started getting a very dull sharp pain again in the abdomen under my right rib,and also in the middle back area.It feels as though one is stuck.Can I do a flush without drinking all the apple juice first?I am in a lot of pain and would appreciate your advice.I would look through the archives but it is very hard to sit here now as it is and write this.Thankyou for your help and this group .

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 I guess my question is... Right now I have it in a climate controlled storage unit. I can't afford that much longer, let alone 5 years. If I put it all in closed plastic bins, is it safe to put in my sister's garage, where her young children play? I have limited options for storing it since I can't afford to pay for storage that long. I don't want to jeopardize anyone else, or myself.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 , I agree, I am a bit confused by responses. I think one variable to consider is humidity. If you are in high humidity, I don't think that leaving the pictures for a long time will do much good, may even worsen things. If you have them in low humidity for a time, and maybe treat (with ozone perhaps?) then maybe over time they will be OK, but hard to say. As far as cross contaminating someone unawares, remember that not everyone is sensitive, and many people live and work in toxic mold environments without becoming ill. Also, if the person scanning is in a low-humidity enviroinment, they may not have much trouble with your pictures. However, if it were my problem, I probably would scan them out-of-doors (or in a garage), then dispose of them. Unconventional but I think that would work. I am in the middle of this myself, scanning the old photos, disposing of all paper that I can, etc. I am also in the East and am using a dehumidifier to keep any new mold from growing. --Kurt [] Re: need advice Thanks Kurt Luckily, I scanned some of my fine art work a few years ago so already have them posted on my site! :-) But I am confused by everyone's responses. I was under the impression that you have to be VERY careful of cross-contamination. I would never want to expose someone's computer/scanner to the mold. This stuff was sitting in a moldy closet for about 9 months minimum, but up to over 2 years of mold growth. But it is definitely NOT visible. I would also be concerned about bringing negatives to a place to have prints made and then having them cross contaminate by handling both together. I am bound into this lease for a year so if something were to make the apartment unlivable I don't know what I would do. I found some of my travel negatives in a drawer the other day, never exposed to the mold. Was so happy. But still, I have a ton from 6 months in Southeast Asia and 2 months in Morocco. Plus all the other photos... I think I am going to keep it in the storage space for another month and try to go there and go through the negatives and throw out as much as I can. It would be helpful to hear from someone who actually has been through this before and succeeded in keeping stuff...how did you do it?

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 I believe any photo center will scan old photo's and negities for afee and put them on a disk. Also they can make new photos from the scans. That would eliminate the problem of contaminating your new residence.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 You won't get the same quality as a scanner but it's much quicker, to just take a picture with a 3 megapixel or better digital camera. With the proper lighting and a stand to hold the camera you probably would have a hard time telling the difference. An advantage of a camera is you could set up anywhere, such as your back yard. And you don't have to deal with the crappy software that usually accompanies scanners. You could probably find someone that could do this for a reasonable fee as well.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Thanks Kurt. Hey, anywhere near NY? Maybe I can come over and scan? :-) I think I'm going to pay for another month of storage so I can think this all through. I don't own a scanner and I get sick from chemicals so any new equipment is out for me. Plus, once I use it, I would want to get rid of it. I don't want to bring any mold into my apartment. It's hard enough sleeping as it is now. Thanks for everyone's advice and comments. > > , ....> I am in the middle of this myself, scanning the old photos, disposing of > all paper that I can, etc. I am also in the East and am using a > dehumidifier to keep any new mold from growing. > --Kurt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 But what about the technician who handles all my photos and negs and then touches my disks that I then take into my home? Am I being too paranoid? I don't want to get sick again and be homeless! > > >My question is, is it saveable or should I cut my losses > >and dump it all now?

Than dry them by taking a paper towel and patting or dabbing them dry rather than rubbing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 I think it all depends on the contamination levelof the objects, type of mold, current health status, etc. I made the mistake of bringing a few pieces of paper from my mold home into my vehicle, 2 years later, and all hell broke loose. Felt like I was starting over. Paper is very porous. And the cross- contamination was phenominal. I would recommend hiring someone to do it for you, with very strict instructions on keeping the old documents separate from the new. I wouldn't even put the papers in your car. I also made the mistake of moving my belongings from an offsite storage unit, into a storage shed 10 feet from my backdoor, to save money. Big mistake. Think my neighbors in the duplex next door were feeling the effects of that one, and their four children. Be very careful with cross-contamination, and take it very seriously. Better to err on the side of caution in this case. Speaking from experience. Jules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
