That's a beautiful website, Ani, and it looks like you have an exciting

array of perfumes.

BTW, everyone, Ani wrote me privately that she had purchased some of my

natural perfumes when I sold them on South Beach back in the early-mid

90's! She may even have some of my Ancient Amber still ;-) I wonder where

you purchased them from, Ani -- me, directly, selling in the bar and lobby

of the Marlin (LOL, how illegal, but, heck, it was happy hour and anything

goes) or from Fabulous, or Beautiful Things, or that body care store I

can't remember the name of, but do remember it was next to CondomMania, or

some of the other outlets, the names and locations of which are lost to the

mists of time (and my poor recordkeeping!)

Hi Anya,

I don't remember the name but it was a small shop that sold all sorts of stuff

maybe closer to Lincoln Road but not on Lincoln, it was a side street maybe west

of Washington? I remember it was painted inside a lavender-ish color.

So glad to be part of this group, I love the sharing of knowledge!

Take care,

Ani

Welcome Donna,

I've only been around for about 6 weeks or so, and trust me--I did the same

thing you are doing--researched, read, researched, then joined some groups. This

is a wonderful group with lots of experts who are always willing to help and to

share.

Trust me though, the one thing I did learn, once you make that first batch and

it turns out (which it should if you follow a basic recipe), you are going to be

hooked and running out of room to store all your new creations.

Good luck, take care and precaution, and have fun.

Blessings

Ah, Ani, that was Beautiful Things, a lovely shop. So glad to have you

here, and jump in with comments and observations. I, for one, would love to

hear the path you took to becoming a natural perfumer, if you would be so

kind to share.

I'm having a bit of trouble getting the calipers right -- they take

practice to do them the same each time.

Here's what has to say about it:

I bought those Fat Track digital calipers and actually threw them in

the trash. They're that good! LOL Generally, anything you snap or

click closed yourself is going to give you funky readings because the

pinch measurement changes each time depending on how hard you snap or

click. Get something spring loaded that applies a constant tension to

every pinch. Otherwise you'll have a sobbing, hair-pulling breakdown

trying to get a reliable reading. I recommend Slim Guide calipers.

They're big, cheap, spring-loaded, and very consistent. I think those

are Hussman's pick also.

Angel, I am the grandmother of a 13 year old autistic boy. I diagnosed him and have worked with him every day since he was 3. I think we have had just about every problem at one time or another. We have had hair-pulling. One time he pulled the hair of the aide on the bus and it was a wig that came off. That really increaded the problem because he wanted to see if everyone's hair would come off. My therapists use to put their hair up in a hat when they worked with him. After that he started pinching, and we all wore long sleeves, a jacket; then he started biting and we wore a heavy coat and gloves. Oh, yes, he went through glass breaking; he loved watching glass break. He went through tearing pages out of books. We gave him lots of paper to shred until he got bored with that. He took three or four beds apart until I bought him a metal bed with metal slats which were welded together.

About a year ago Karac's mother when she was at her wits end trying to get him to sleep gave him one of her Xanax pills, and he has been a delight every since.

He certainly sounds autistic to me, although I'm not a doctor so I can't

really diagnose. But he does fit the profile.

About the falling down. You might have his ears looked at. Anything

wrong with balance can usually be traced to something going on in the

inner ear (where equilibrium is seated). He may have fluid there and

need tubes. Or he may be a heavy wax producer and have a build-up

that's affecting him. Either way, I'd call it to the peds attention.

Insofar as an autism determination goes, your best bet is to go to

either a psychologist experienced in autism or to a neuropsychologist.

Most pediatricians aren't trained to recognize autism in med school.

BTW, welcome! My guy is Louie, who is 26 and High Functioning

Autistic/Aspergers Syndrome Autistic. He's in assisted living for 5

years now, has 2 paying part-time jobs, and is a sweet young man! When

he was diagnosed in 1982, we were advised to put him in a facility

because he'd never live a functional life. A lot they knew!

[Guest guest]

Hi Annie,

I've noticed the lack of training in doctors and other special ed professionals! I worked for quite a while in group homes for adults with various developmental disabilities, so I know what autism looks like! I've been told by several " professionals " that since he doesn't pick his nose in front of you, and shows a desire to form relationships with adults, that he can't possibly have Asperger's.

Looks like it will be a while before we can get him tested though- we were supposed to have an appt. with his ped this week but his mother went behind our backs and cancelled it on us. Looks like it's time for war! I can't understand the logic. Anyway, thanks for the validation, Annie. I have been afraid to appear like the " my kid MUST have something wrong with him " person. I know too many people who just keep piling misdiagnoses on their innocent children.

Thanks for the ear!

I'm newer to this community too, my son being recently

diagnosed w/ ASD. It sounds closer to High Functioning

Autism than ASD due to the speech delays and low use

of language on a regular basis. Autistics are

extremely intelligent just have a lack of

communication/social skills so that is why he prefers

adults to talk to. They are more patient and

understand his use of words better. It is wonderful to

hear you are taking your stepson under your wing I

sure he will do just fine. Just be patient yourself

with the process it is very slow going.

Good luck,

Welcome Brad and Celia. I am Pat the grandmother of a 13 year old autistic boy. I diagnosed him and have worked with him since he was three. I have him all day every day and adore him. When he was your sons age he used pinching as a form of communication. If he wanted to stop me from doing something that he didn't like, he would pinch me. All of us who worked with him wore long sleeves until he learned "hands quiet" or to say, "I want to go play" which got him out of any situation that was causing him anxiety. He still will sometimes reach over and pinch me gently when I am doing something that he doesn't like, but after years of scarred arms; I pretty well know when he is getting upset and can avoid it. Are you doing ABA with your son? Does your son have language?

This is a good group; I am sure you will get some good suggestions from others or empathy. LOL, Pat K

[Guest guest]

Welcome..glad you found us! Just wondering if you've noticed that your son has

any sensory issues? Perhaps that may be why he doesn't like certain touches?

Does he react to one particular area that he's touched and is it light touch? My

son (9yrs) is autistic and has some sensory issues..just wondering if that may

be your son's " trigger " for his reactions.

Subject: New to the group

Hi everyone .. we just wanted to let everyone know who we were since

we are new to the group. Brad and Celia Thibodaux from Houma,

Louisiana. Our oldest son is 4 and is ASD. We also have

who is 3years old. And a baby on the way .. due at the end of

september. We have been having problems with being aggressive

toward us and most other people as well. It's not all the time .. but

it's so hard to predict how he will respond to something we say or do.

We find he is really aggressive towards people who grab or touch him.

At home we can hold him or touch him .. it's really when we are out in

public. At times he is aggressive at home but not as often. Well, we

just wanted to say hello to everyone.

Hi nne,

Welcome and thanks for sharing your story. FUnny that my OS thought they

were going in for a meniscus tear and I ended up havng a lateral release and

plica resection. That was in October.

Luckly, you understand the role of the PT and that you have to be the

guiding force. I had NO PT after my sugery and am paying for it now.

Tell us about the microfracture. How long non weight bearing? Were you in

the hospital or day surgery? How has the week to week progress been going.

This is great, because now we have someone going through the Carticel

process and someone going through the microfracture.

Good luck to you,

Don

May I ask where you are in the PNW? I live in Lacey (next to Olympia) and had

no luck communicating with any local OS, had to start working my way through

ones in Seattle. I found one I trust enough to take care of my meniscal tear

(surg. sched. a week from tomorrow (Fri)), but if I wake up with microdrilling

... well, I'd just rather know first. Did you talk to your surgeon about

replacing the backside of your kneecap & trochlea? I'm finding them extremely

reluctant (if not downright refusing) to do that if the rest of the articular

cartilage (i.e. the part not damaged by chondromalacia) is OK, which mine is.

Enough to make me wish I had arthritis so I could just GET IT FIXED and be on my

way.

New to the group

Hi,

I've been lurking for a couple of weeks now and

thought I'd introduce myself. I'm nne, live in

the Pacific Northwest and have quite the horrible

grade of CP. Long story short, I fell 5 years ago on

my knee, had microfracture surgery 3 years ago on my

medial femoral condyle. Was on crutches, non weight

bearing for 6 weeks, unknowningly working with a PT

who misunderstood the surgeons rehab protocol and had

me doing *nothing* to strengthen my quads after

surgery. This, over time, allowed for a gross

misalignment and chronic joint instability. Had a

scope and lateral release 7 weeks ago, with the scope

finding the trochlear groove just about destroyed

(bone without cartilage). SO, here I am.

I'm currently working with a most wonderful PT guy who

has been incredibly encouraging and has me working my

tail off in a tough, but painfree, manner. I'm walking

without much pain, doing stairs, and have just started

" water jogging " . All this in the hopes of being able

to do a small form of running, since I participate in

the sport of dog agility. (Where the dogs perform all

the obstacles while the handler directs and runs

alongside them). Won't know if I can return to that

for awhile, but we gotta hope, right? If not, there's

plenty in life to keep me busy.

Having seen the best and the worst of physical

therapists, and a few in between, I'll probably never

be able to shut up about the importance of finding a

qualified PT. Belatedly I realized the onus was also

on me to understand the rehab protocol BEFORE I had my

first surgery. (The microfracture was a surprise, both

doc and I thought it was going to be a meniscus tear

repair...)

Anyway, that's my story...... (and I'm sticking to it

)

Thanks for the welcome, Don. How are you

recuperating from your lateral release? I've heard

that sometimes it can take a long time to get back to

some sense of normality (does anyone know what normal

is? )

Oh my, I can't imagine NOT doing PT after this lateral

release I just had. My quads have been so mushy

(especially the all important VMO) that it's been a

challenge both to him and myself to get them back

firing and working correctly without inducing the ole

patellar pain. Are you in PT now? Do you have a good

set of exercises to do daily??

Well, my microfracture surgery was back in Dec of 03.

It was a day surgery. Yea, waking up to an OS looking

you in the face with a serious look and saying " it was

much worse than we thought " was not what I was

expecting. I was 6 weeks totally non-weight bearing,

although I was supposed to be doing some leg lifts and

quad strengthenings (which didn't happen). After 6

weeks and subsequent OS exploding about the " idiot

PT " , I went to another place where they slowly helped

me regain my quad strength (they had to use EMS with

Russian Stim to get the quad to even fire). It took

another 4 weeks before I took my first full weight

bearing steps with the help of a cane. However, since

my first steps back then, I started having pain

underneath my knee cap. Something I talked to with

everyone (PT, OS, PA, etc etc) Everyone said it would

hurt abit til I got my strength back. The hurt never

left and destroying my trochlea was the result. I have

pictures of my patella and trochlear groove from Dec

of 03 and all was well.........now it looks like a

bomb went off in there. The rest of my knee looks

very good, including the microfractured site.

Now I need to recuperate from this lateral release and

clean-out. Ain't life fun?

Hi Ann,

Well, I'm actually in the verrrrry eastern part of the

PNW. I'm in Northern Idaho and there are some fine

knee docs in Spokane, WA.

You know the song, " If I knew then, what I know now " ,

I would have been much more specific when I went in

for my first surgery. I never dreamed that it was

going to be a microfracture procedure and was unhappy

that I really wasn't informed, nor do I remember

giving consent for anything but the " menisectomy " .

I've often wondered if that was why this OS (whom I no

longer see) was so totally cold and disinterested in

me when I complained of patellar pain. Ah well, water

under the bridge.

For my second surgery I was fully awake and basically

had an epidural. The doc was wonderful and gave me a

complete tour of my knee and showed me the good, the

bad and the ugly. My recuperation from the actual

surgery was super fast and I walked out without

crutches 2 hours later. If people can stomach it, I'd

say, ask for the epidural......

I know what you mean, my OS was very specific about

telling me how " good " the rest of my knee looked. I'm

48 and have quite a few years ahead of me before any

kind of prosthesis would be considered. Eventually,

( " they " say 10 years) the microfracture will wear out

and arthritis will set in, making a replacement much

more realistic. I don't know though, I'm not

convinced I want to get rid of my own " junk " yet, I'm

hoping to get a few more years mileage out of it.

Thanks for your reply. Re destroying good articular cartilage to solve the CP

problem, I'm 64. I figure why not? I can't get enough exercise with it the way

it is to keep my heart/arteries health. Why should I die early with great

articular cartilage when I could live a more active live by sacrificing it?

Hell, I'd be willing to trade in my whole perfectly good lower leg and bad

kneecap for a prosthesis if it would allow me to be more active. Would I have

to get in a car wreck first? Well, I've always wanted to be a NASCAR driver.

Hi Crystal,

I wish somebody would have warned me about puberty in an autistic child. I have two sons older and they were normal adolescents, got in trouble with the cops, chased girls, got drunk, etc.......

But with my son Marty, he just got violent and had melt downs at school, etc. He was being mainstreamed in high school then. I think it was because he knew he was different, and could not stand the humiliation of having an aide with him all the time, and the "normal" teenagers gawking at him, they had him diagnosed as retarded then.

So I would suggest that you be prepared in advance about how to handle puberty behaviors, find somebody who knows about it, and how to teach you to manage him. I think they did everything wrong with my son, and it made him much more upset. At home it wasn't easy either, mainly I just kept him from breaking everything in the house, or hurting me too much. It was really something, like a mad house.

And one day it just ended, it was amazing, and was time! I think he was about 20 then, but I do think it could have gone much much easier, if we would have understood more in advance. And the special ed people were the dumbest! They were sooooo ignorant as to what was going on, it was hooooooooormoooones!

Sigh.

Carolyn

new to the group

HII have a 13 yro son with high functioning autism, we live in MN. His behaviors are driving me crazy. He has been a good kid, with some bumps here and there. Now, I think puberty is hitting him like a freight train. A few days ago I watched him crane his neck to watch a skimpy clothed girl walk by! Has anyone else experinced this one yet?Puberty-its scary!Thanks,Crystal
