Guest guest Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Most attorneys will not charge you for a consultation, . You may even find one who will take the case *pro bono*. It's money that belongs to and he is entitled to. So, fight for it. Good luck and keep us posted. granny On Sun, Jan 17, 2010 at 7:22 PM, Dusterhoft <melanie@...>wrote: > > > Some of you have seen my story on facebook but I am seeing if anyone here > is able to help me out.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 I'd be surprised if a judge would grant his petition to TPR. He basically will be telling the court he no longer wants to be responsible for someone he IS responsible for. It's your child's right to have a parent support them.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 there is a chair which is the one that my son uses for postural and other sensory issues that there is no chance of him doing that because it is a Z shape and with the right parts can last long time my son is 10 they are expensive new but you can buy them second hand on ebay the name of the chair and you probably already heard of it is Stokke Tripp Trapp but you also have to think as an investment for the future especially if your child has sensory problems like mine does.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Hi Does anyone have any idea/suggestion or gadget i could buy for my son, he sits in a toddlers seat that fits into a dining chair, he keeps pushing his hands against the table which makes the chair tip back (on two legs) last night he pushed himself too far and the chair with him in it toppled backwards, resulting in him hitting his head and elbows on the floor. x We want to hear all your funny, exciting and crazy Hotmail stories.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 We faced the same problem as well when our son was small. In the end we had to buy a folding high chair that he couldn't topple over. You might have to invest in one as well.Cheers, Adam Diliphttp://www.imaan.bizOn 10 March 2010 08:58, michelle lacey <michelle0471@...> wrote: Hi Does anyone have any idea/suggestion or gadget i could buy for my son, he sits in a toddlers seat that fits into a dining chair, he keeps pushing his hands against the table which makes the chair tip back (on two legs) last night he pushed himself too far and the chair with him in it toppled backwards, resulting in him hitting his head and elbows on the floor. x We want to hear all your funny, exciting and crazy Hotmail stories.

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 It sounds like a very nice, heartfelt gift... you put my Border's gift cards to shame :-) Really, I think that personal letter telling her how much she has impacted your lives will mean more to her than any material gift. But, if you want to do more, since she's pregnant, if you wanted to add something else, maybe a pampering type item or massage? Have you given her the starfish poem yet? That's always nice, printed onto nice paper, or if you want to get fancy, you could glue on a dried starfish and frame in a simple acrylic shadow-box type frame? I think what you already have is wonderful, delivered with a big HUG. Good luck tomorrow.... I picked the baby up from her last day of elementary school today, and it was quite sad to think I'm finished with a school we've been at for so many years. , mom to (14), (12 DS), and Sammy (10) On 6/8/2010 5:31 PM, Dusterhoft wrote: > > What do you do for a person who has made a HUGE impact in your life and > tomorrow is it?

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 send us a copy of your letter...we would love to read it! That will be her most prized gift.  It is the words from your heart that count! I just spent a week and a half writing teacher and therapist letters because they mean so much.  Loree Help needed  What do you do for a person who has made a HUGE impact in your life and tomorrow is it? Tomorrow is 's last day as an elementary student yes I am allowing him to go to middle school. This is where it gets funny, his teacher of 5 years told me last week that in November she is going to have twins and she is going to join my multiples group. So I already bought her a book Chicken Soup for the Soul teachers edition and a beautiful basket of flowers and tonight with some liquid encouragement (I'm on my second glass of wine already about halfway through the 2nd glass) a goodbye but Welcome letter I read it to my mom and she cried. I included how much she has helped me through my trip to Holland (I included a link in case she has never read the poem) and I told her that we are bonded sisters but unlike most of my bonded sisters I do have a face to the username. Once I find out what she is having I'm going to have a friend design her a beautiful bracelet to include her current kids with her future kids. I just don't know more what to do, what to say? She got a sweet lap desk with all of his absolute favorites and the card she made was so - a picture of a blondie with headphones and his iTouch.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Here is a copy of the letter that I wrote her, yes I admit to it I had liquid encouragement, it was a very emotional night. Billie- Geez I knew I was going to be doing this all year but like normal I have been putting it off, but last week you gave me the best news, knowing that this is not a goodbye at all. Knowing that you are probably going to be joining the same MOMs (Mothers Of Multiples) group which if you join right now till the end of August it is a free membership with once a month moms support group, which since I am on the membership committee I will probably be at them (as long as it works out with hubby’s schedule). If you need any help at all just let me know, the pregnancy with the girls was filled with plenty of complications, from already being labeled high risk because of , to the girls being identical the doctors worrying about twin to twin transfusion, borderline gestational diabetes, high blood pressure, severe edema, pre-term labor (which the doctors stopped 5 times, yes 5 times it was stopped), partial bed rest, full time bed rest, protein spilling into the urine, and finally pre-eclampsia where I was still on bed rest for 24 hours after I delivered the girls at 34 weeks 3 days gestation and Abbey was born 6 pounds 1 ounce, 7 minutes later a was 6 pounds 7 ounces and they were both 19 inches long and the funniest thing I remember about the delivery part of it was the doctor saying, “Ummmm can you repeat that?”, all because the girls came out full term size yet they were premature, then the scary part happened. I delivered a double placenta and my blood pressure went from 150/100 to the lowest number I heard a 24, then waking up and coming to my complete senses a couple days later with all the sticky things around where my heart is, and the OB telling me, “man you gave us a tad bit of a scare”. 2 units of blood and a 5 day hospital stay they finally let me go home and yes I did get to bring the girls home with me!! Anyways back to the main guy, and off of my complicated pregnancy. I just don’t know how to say thanks for everything that you have done for , through all the phone calls, visits to school, IEP meetings, mediation, trips to the different middle schools, to all the different diagnoses that have come up in the past 5 years, to the letters that you have written up for me (and will hopefully write me yet one more come fall time to help me get into the nursing program, so far I’m pulling the grades, now I am just going to need the letters of recommendation). Oh and yes your letter did help get approved for a special needs stroller!! I’m super excited. Just so you know and you can let Diane, Cheryl and Sam knows that I am not going anywhere; the girls start Kindergarten there in the fall full time. I know the visits, calls and emails won’t be as frequent. Just so you know I will be turning to you for other advice, and I hope you turn to me for it as well. I don’t know yet who will be the case manager(s) for the girls next year – yes they have IEPs for speech delay and social problems (plus they are also showing some of the same signs of sensory problems that has I don’t remember what they were – I’m enjoying a fine glass of wine right now it’s making it easier for me to write this up). For contact use either .dusterhoft@... or dust0043@... for email, I closed the @... to save a few bucks for the year. loves his gifts, and can you imagine that he has already opened them up? Does it surprise you? Not me once I saw them. As the famous poem by Perl Kingsley Welcome to Holland (if you have never read it check it out www.our-kids.org/Archives/Holland.html) you have helped with my trip here to Holland, you have helped me check out different sites and ventures (man this ethics class has me thinking quite differently), you have made my trip so far to Holland more enjoyable than I would have ever thought. You made my eyes open to the different options and different aspects. I love this poem, just like the other 2 that I sent you. So for now it is a goodbye but a short lived one. We are in some ways bonded sisters but unlike the bonded sisters I don’t have to reach out to find a face to the username; I have met the person in real life. So from my family to yours enjoy your summer, I know the kids will enjoy theirs all 3 are involved in some way for ’s wedding gets to help walk down the aisle and the girls of course are the flower girls and yes I am a bridesmaid the only person in the house that doesn’t have a role in the wedding is my husband but he is playing an important role as my fashion consultant, he is picking out my shoes for the wedding I can’t wait to see what he picks out for me, over the past year he has bought me a bunch of stuff off of eBay that 1. Is super cute, 2. Fits me perfectly, and 3. Is so my style. As soon as I have pictures of everything I will send you pictures (I’m about due for a refill here on my wine hehehehehehe). If you are ever on Facebook I’m always on there (actually it goes right to my blackberry, hubby told me last night that he is going to take it away from me because it is always vibrating, well it has my main email address now what else am I supposed to do? I have it programmed to turn off at 11pm and turn back on at 6:15am so it’s not going off in the middle of the night!! ) the email to find me on there is the Gmail address. My home address (just in case someone throws you a baby shower, you better invites me I love a good party) is 15599 Hedgehog St NW, Ramsey, MN 55303. You have my cell memorized so I don’t have to give you that (I’ve had that phone number since 2002 it’s not going to change at all). If you ever need help watching those 2 little babies just let me know I don’t know what my spring (Jan-May) schedule is going to be until November, but if you need me I’m close by to the school (you can Google or map quest it, I can make it in 8 minutes) and I don’t charge the going rates either (when I was helping out a friend with his 3 kids, one school age, one preschool and one toddler I was charging him $100 a week and that also included transporting the school age child to school over 30 minutes away). Just let me know I’m always willing to help out (plus when I do start the nursing program I’m doing it at night because I can’t do the early morning clinicals during the week, on the weekend is a different story), my kitchen is completely kid proof (I have proofed it I have so child proofed it sometimes I forget where the magnet is and I can’t get into the cabinets!!). So like I said before yes this is a goodbye but it is also a big hug and Welcome to that special club, the club of helping raise and shape , and the club of being a mother of multiples! Thank you for everything that you have done these past 5 years I don’t know what I would have done without you being there (Ethics is starting to call me with 44 pages of reading and 7 meditation readings and my glass of wine is empty dang it I tell you, I would have you come over and enjoy a bottle of wine with me but your pregnant and can’t I think I’m going to refill!!!! Lol). Dusterhoft P.S. You better let me know what you are having as soon as you know so I can have your present made (one of the ladies in the multiples group is a jewelry designer!!) Oh and I didn’t know that this was going to be a page and a half almost 2 pages. I ended up having to go through 2 ½ glasses of wine to write this and a cry out to my husband, he reassured me that yes I will see you again (sorry if this is not making sense I’m kinda drunk….hehehehhehehe the only way I could make it through this whole process without losing my mind – I don’t see my therapist for another week and a half).

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Hi Kathleen, I would just comment that magnesium supplement/powder in highish doses will cause bowel motility and is a much better option for constipation than any medication and has no side effects either. Sally xx HI SHEILA AND ALLCan you offer any advice here. I was prescribed what I was told was MOVICOL, but on the packet it states LAXIDO (ORANGE) AND SUGAR FREE.The sachets contain MACROGOL, SODIUM CHLORIDE, SODIUM HYDROGEN CARBONATE AND POTASSIUM CHLORIDE other ingrediants are acesulfame potassium and propylene.My GP also knows of my problems with SALT INC Himalayan and Calcium.The first night caused painful cramp to retun in my feet and calfs, and a return of cloudy urine on the first morning after taking these sachets. I also experiance painful backpain. With the third sachet last night more cramp, headachy, a return of a dry mouth and a large bruise has arrived on the top of my leg. My BP has also been rising.I got in touch with the surgery, but they appeared to want to fob me off with a different GP, but my answer to this is that the GP who prescribed should be the one to be seen, so I have not been given an appointment, but have told them I will not be taking any more.One can in fact suffer from salt overdose especially if the kidneys have problems handling salt. It has also been known for Mothers causing the death of children with overdosing with salt.I was prescribed this for constipation.The surgery have in fact just got in touch and mad an appointment for Wednesday, and I have in turn mentioned to them that I would like to trial out T3 even if I have to purchase from abroad, but that I would not treat myself with T3 as a previous Doctor did which was the whole dose 25mcg as a single dose which did free my bowels but too much so. I would gradually introduce it, but not as a single dose.My weight has also gone up.Kathleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 HI SALLY I have just got into trouble with Lilian as I forgot to snip off the previous messages. At the time her message came through I was in the process of ordering some MAGNESIUM SUPPLEMENT POWDER, but it does state to take small doses several times a day, and to build up gradually. Magnesium also keeps calcium in check, but could sodium chloride be causing a problem with calcium. I also recognise the symptoms given for magnesium deficiency, and although nuts are good to take for magnesium taking these caused me to have worse symptoms. Could these milia type spots also be an indication of magnesium deficiency. Along with this the food industry are adding calcium to food without magnesium, so from this adding anything to food may suit some but not others so the food and drug industry may well be causing health problems. Is it possible too that having movicol which has a high ammount of sodium in it may also be upsetting my BP monitor, as when I am in trouble my monitor has problems in getting a reading. Sorry to Lilian as well as I was too eager at ordering some magnesium powder that I forgot to snip off the previous message.

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 > Hi Kathleen,> That is excellent news. I do take nuts in my diet, but due to our hypothyroidism and western diet we need to supplement to get the amount of magnesium that is going to help us, since we start from a negative point.> Sometime the milia type spots are due to high cholesterol levesl and particularly if you are hypothyroid of course. If you know your cholesterol levels then you will know if this is the case if not it might be worth having them done for interest. However, I would resist taking Statin drugs and hopefully you wont be offered them since they are contraindicated with hypothyroidism.> Sodium does tend to cause calcium to leach out of the bones. I have just written a detailed piece addressed to both and Sheila in a discussion about suppressed TSH and osteoporosis. Without doubt the food and drug industry are causing us many health problems. To start with the drug industry benefits financially from our ill health it is in their interest to keep us ill. The food industry do not care about our health they too care more about profit. Processed food allows them to charge excessive amounts of money for so called food.> You seeem to be quite knowledgeable Kathleen and I can't emphasise the need to educate yourself as much as possible. Kind regards Sally .> Best of luck with everything.

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 HI SALLY I have learnt a lot through the TPA, and in obtaining my Mothers hospital records. Before this I thought that I was the only one with the illness. Even when I was told that I had Hypothyroidism I was told nothing about it, so with so many symptoms you are not able to think that they are all connected to having Hypothyroidism, but I did feel that there was something wrong in our family. Most of us did not even have a computer, and even if Doctors do not like us having this aid I think it is a boon to try to help ourselves, as Doctors get angry with us if we keep going back, in turn they do not beleive us, but as TPA expand how can they say this. I have tried statins being on the lowest dose possible, but they caused me to get angry, so I told my GP that getting angry will not do my heart anygood. Sudden noises come into it too like the Doctors intercons that can sometimes BARK, and yes dogs used to frighten me if they bark and jump up at me, and will include Husbands, but the terrible rows that our parents had were one of the worst and for our family bad due to the effect that my Mothers brain tumour had on her. Cholesterol problems are very evident in our family and my latest reading not long ago was 7.0. They denied at one time that these milia spots were due to cholesterol, but my younger Brothers face is covered in them and his heart is very bad as one of the arteries are narrowed. I had a scan done of the hip to see if my bones were OK and told that no treatment was needed Prednisolone can also cause problems with calcium. Antisychotic drugs prevent you from knowing if drugs or food are causing more problems, and to spend time asleep including ones brain is not good. Once off those I was able to learn more about the inside of a computer. I also think Doctors tend to increase the dose of a drug when they should decrease it especially when one gets older. Magnesium phosphates are not good to take, so there is a difference in the types of magnesiums, so a question what types of magnesium are there in nuts.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Hi everyone, I have a 6 year old son who has a lot of sensory issues and is on autism spectrum. We just started Masgutova therapy and i have been been reading posts in the forum for sometime. My son needs a lot of oral stimulation and always wants to chew on something. We used to give him chewy tubes but after I read somewhere in the forum that Dr Masgutova does not recommend it and it may develop tics in children i stopped it as i made the connection between my son starting this tic using his neck over the few years. I wanted to ask if there is some other way we can help and if its ok for him to eat a gum for oral sensory issues or a gum is equally harmful as the chewy tube. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for taking out time to read and respond. Reha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 I will chime in about xylitol---I know dentists like it because some research indicates that it may prevent cavities. However, when it first came on the market you could find articles about the negative health impacts of xylitol--on kidneys, joints. and other body systems. This info is much harder to find now, I don't know why. Just to share this other point of view---I personally dislike any sweeteners that are heavily processed. I would suggest noticing for your own child if they seem to react well or not to this food product. Perhaps gum with sugar (also hard to find!) is not that bad a tradeoff. Most gum formulas have been changed, and it is difficult to even find gum with sugar vs corn syrup etc. Beemans is available online if you look for it---on old brand that they still make with the old recipe.SandyOn Sep 26, 2011, at 8:48 AM, Cecilia Palacios-Chuang wrote: Janet and Reha, glad to hear about this since I had the same issues with my boys.

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 Thank you guys bring out this topic. This is really become a headache after I put my son on Dairy and Wheat diet. Might be recently we are doing Neruofeedback makes it worse too. Anyone has experience linking sensory seeking or tics with Diet and Neruofeedback?For my son, I found that, 1. TV and Video Game make his sensory seeking worse. 2. The stress makes it worse.3. He was much calmer and almost stopped his sensory seeking after I increased his swimming class 3 times/week last session.

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 My grandmother used to chew a small piece of beeswax(natural - local may be possible) all day long. You might be able to mix/fold in stevia or lemon to start off with to satisfy the 'flavor' issue. I remember loving this as a kid, since gum was always too sweet, then too nasty. It did not tire the jaw the way that gum can either.
