Dear Amy, (Melinda, Kathy and Louis)

Thanks so much for your welcome and replies. I am scared, and this means a

huge amount to me.

I will order Tamar's book. (Couldn't see the others on Amazon). I will look

at the UK site. I hope to see someone from the UK posting one day!! Things

are certainly different over here...guess it's to do with our run down

National Health Service. Definitely too few psychologists- the ones there

are all educational....

Ami is refusing to admit there is a problem, and certainly won't accept

meds, so I'm letting her know that meds are out there and then I'll have to

wait. Lack of acceptance may also make ERP difficult, but I'll se when I've

read the book.

Meanwhile she has taken 5 mg inositol AGAIN tonight )) (so long as I take

one too!), as a combined B vit. When I'm near a health store I'll try to

find it on its own, as the other B vits may be too high a dose for her size.

Meanwhile at least it feels like I'm doing SOMETHING........

Any words of encouragement, idea of dose etc for an 11 year old trying

inositol alone?

Thanks again...so much

Alice

Sorry, Alice, I don't know any thing about inositol. However, since

also refuses prescription meds, I will investigate it. He

has no aversion to taking vitamins and currently takes a multi-

vitamin with minerals and fish oil capsules (to increase body fat).

Thanks for bringing to light yet another option.

I am so very truly happy to hear that. Our families thoughts and prayers are

with you. Take care and we are rooting for you.

Thank You

> Hi Everyone,

> Thank you for all your letters they meant so much to me. I love all of my

groups! It is so great to have the type of support that you guys give. Thank

You all once again. Well we went to have the procedure done yesterday.

First they hooked Mike up to a table to flip him around on and see if that

effected his heart.... Nothing, then they inserted the tubes for the EP

Study. to see if they stimulated his heart would there be any fluttering,

when the entered into the heart without stimulating it there was fluttering,

it started by itself and stopped on it's own to. However when the dr was

stimulating it there was no flutter. So in other words Mike has a healthy

heart.. Everyone's heart has fluttering in it every now and then. So in the

mean time they want him to still wear the heart monitor and stay off his

pills. But they are now looking at the fact that it could be epilepsy

without seizure activity in the brain when they do test. So we still have

nothing concrete. But the good news is that with several phone calls on

Monday, we finally got an answer from the insurance company Mike was

accepted, and they will cover everything from 1/1/02 and on. THANK GOD!!! So

today after what feels like forever not keeping track of what I've been

eating, I started again ! It feels so good to be in control of what I'm

eating. I know that I've strayed, because of stress. But I've tried to be a

ware of my eating.

I'm glad to hear that everything went well, and doubly happy to hear

about the insurance. My mom went round and round with insurance both

this year and last as she's self-insured (The premiums boggle the

mind!) I'm also very glad that they're back-dating it to last month.

What a boon!

Congratulations on getting back on track.

Hi Shellely,

I can totally relate to how you're feeling. Hunter is seven, and every

time it is time for his IV, he kicks and screams, not understanding why we are

holding him down and torturing him. I usually end up crying all afternoon when

we get home and asking God why this is happening to my precious son. I too feel

like what have I done wrong. We still don't know if this is genetic, I have my

doubts. This whole situation is like a continuous nightmare for me. I know

things could be worse, but it is hard not to feel jealous of people with healthy

kids. I know this is where most of my depression comes from.

On the otherhand, I am trying to praise God everyday for the air that we

breath, and for the life he has given us. None of us knows when it will be our

last day on earth. Because of this, I have developed a greater relationship

with God. I try not to take anything for granted.

Telling your son I'm sure will be difficult. Kids are very tough and can

handle a lot. Everytime Hunter goes in for his IV, we have a talk about the

immune system, and if he didn't get this IVIG, he would be very sick like he was

in the past. They can only understand so much, so it is hard. We just try and

make everything as comfortable as possible. We numb with the Emla cream, and

the nurse usually injects Lidocaine to numb it more. I try to hydrate him well

before we go in. That usually helps. We draw blood each time for an IGG level.

I insist that we draw it off of the IV site, not poke his arm again. Each stick

is precious. Then between IV's, I try and forget about his illness as much as I

can and try and lead a normal life. From the past e-mail, I think you said he

has to go in every 3 weeks. Hunter started out that way also, I insisted we

check levels and try spreading them out. Hunter has been very healthy except

for a few illnesses inbetween. He is full of energy. They let it up to me when

we want to go in. We have been going in every 5-6, (last time 7) weeks.

Granted the 7 is to long and his levels are lower, but I have been experimenting

with how long we can go. If I wouldn't have spoke up, we'd still be doing it

every 3 weeks-which is torture for Hunter.

Sorry so long, but keep in touch with all of us and it is ok to vent and

feel the way you do.

God Bless,

Temme-mom to Dylan-9 and Hunter-7 (agammaglobulinemia)

thank you

Hello group,

I just wanted to say thank you for your e-mails. They really mean a lot to me.

It just doesn't seem fair that God would allow these things to happen to

children who didn't do anything to deserve a life sentence of IVIG and chronic

infections. My heart aches for and what he'll have to go through for a

long time. I will say though, that has two things going for him that

will make him be able to handle this much better than I am: he has terrific

veins and he has a temperament that will allow him to " go with the punches. "

Perhaps you can help me with; when and how should I tell ? Although he

is an even tempered little boy, I am afraid if I tell him in the wrong way, he

will keep his feelings to himself and cause even more damage. How does a mom

tell her eight year old little boy that he will probably have this disease

forever?

I can't stop crying. I am so hurt by what the doctor said.

Hello

I had started a few, even bought leather bound blank books for doing so

but I always forgot to pack the journal. I have a few odd photos but

most pictures went undeveloped. I guess I never really put much

emphasis on chronically my journeys, I always thought I would return

with somebody to share the sights, it's difficult to enjoy anything when

on a business trip by yourself and if you're with co-workers, you either

don't make it out of the bar or the fast food places.

Dear Dan, & Caroline,

thank you! Dan, I did start my folic acid late, so perhaps this is definitely a

problem, although, on it...I have been having this problem lately, but no so bad

as this time. , thank you friend also...your kindness is much

appreciated. Caroline as always..thank you also and if possible I will talk to

my rheumy tomorrow. It was his last day in my area today, although he wasn't at

the office. He starts tomorrow at the UCONN University Hospital. He was once

there before, but literally has to start all over again. I am hoping to be able

to find him and talk to him..and yes...there are actual sores on my right arm. I

never thought of these before. I didn't think it was anything at all.

Anyway..thank you very much, ALL of you for the love and support as always.

Dan..I added you to my addy list..!

Love, sue #2

I was wondering if anyone here has tried EFT or NAET for their children's

behaviors? We have just started the NAET because frankly, the gfcf diet did

not work out for us. I tried it for almost a year but I just knew that Evan

is allergic or intolerant to more than gluten and casein but I was never

able to go deeper into eliminating more food. We are just into the

treatments so we cannot be positive what benifits we will be seeing but I

have friends who have seen great benifits. My 31 yo daughter has been

suffering with depression with her bipolar and after doing the first brain

body balance treatment she has been full of unusal energy and much less

depressed. EFT uses similar methods but is not for allergy elimination but

Emotional Freedom. I am trying to learn more about it because it also is

suppose to have helpd some with autism.

Hello Group, I am a LPC/School Psychologist in private practice in

Tulsa, OK and have successfully used EFT for autism, ADHD/ADD and

behavioral issues. It has proven very effective when learned and

used properly. You can go to www.emofree.com for a list of trained

providers in your area. I highly recommend trying alternative

methods to assist our kids in leading happier, more productive

lives. With EFT there are no drugs, nothing invasive and it is quick

and effective. If you would like further info the above website is a

wealth of information, too.

Hope this helps,

Debbie

LOL,,I should re-post the conversation I had with myself one night

when I went over to mcDs intending to cheat and get chocolate chip

cookies (homemade ones NOT those little hard things).

It was so funny (in retrospect). It was SO one of those " devil on

one shoulder, angel on the other " moments.

Okay so here I am walking across the street to mcD's for cookies. (I

used to live about 30 steps from Mic's front door,,arrggghh, luckily

the only thing they have that I like are the shakes, ice cream and

those cookies,,,mmmmmmmmmmmm warm and melty,,,ACK,,slaps

face,,,anyway).

Angel: Just WHAT do you think you're doing????!!!!!

Devil: MIND your own business, I just cleaned house for 4 hours,,,I'm

tired, cranky, cold and I WANT a REWARD!!!!

Angel: mutter, mutter, mutter,,BAD,,BAD girl,,,,

I reach the door,,,I go in,,I ask for 6 CC Cookies.

Counter boy: I'm sorry ma'am we're out right now

Angel: HAH!!! Serves you right,,,SEE? It's NOT meant to be.

Devil: WE'LL see about that!!!!

Me (to counter boy): How long before you have a batch ready??

Counter boy: 8-12 minutes.

Me: okay thank you.

So, I walk out into the Chevron quik mart part of the store.

To wait.

(mwah haha).

Angel: LOOK, this is a SIGN that you are not SUPPOSED to cheat.

Devil: YOU just shut up before I knock your lily white pansy little

winged a$$ on this floor, I am GETTING cookies, I DESERVE cookies!!!

Angel: ALLRIGHT,,,THAT does it,,,,You get your FAT behind HOME and go

to bed,,,you need REST you moron, NOT cookies!!! NOW MARCH!!!!!!!!!!

LET'S go,,,,,you're gonna take a hot bath and go to bed,,,now quit

your sniveling,,,get your fat rear end HOME!!!!

Man!!! Those angels can be so MEAN!!!!!

LOL,,,

(by the way,,the angel DID win. I didn't get cookies).

The moral of the story is that you don't want to have a devil and

angel duking it out on your shoulders in public, it's embarrassing.

heehee,,,,but really,,,,sometimes you just GOTTA " yell " at yourself.

Reminds me of the time I took the milk duds off the shelf, put them

back on the shelf, took them off, put them back on...anyone near me

must have thought I was crazy!

ROFLMAO!!!!!!! I just printed that to show to my friend. I was

whining to him today about the candy bowl being within reach at work,

he told me that for every piece of candy that I ate I had to do 5

push ups.......maybe I will just tell him that you will send your

little " Guido Angel " after me
