Guest guest Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 I didntw ant to wait at all, so i switched to a pediatrician that deals with speical needs kids, and can diagnos him in the office. If he has any healthe related issues he can see him for that as well, they could be related. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~Debbie~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Hello! Greetings,I am the father of a 20 month old little boy who has been showing recent signs of developmental delays and some symptoms of autism. We are waiting for an appointment to have Caden evaluated, but this wait is killing me. So here I am looking for first hand information from parents who are dealing with this.What can I expect from his evaluation, & what will they be able to tell me?I'm fairly ignorant of the condition, so what can I expect for my son?I'm trying to keep a positive attitude about all of this, but by nature i'm pretty eeyorish.Thankssallen@...

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 , First I want to say Kudos to you for wanting to get educated and help your child with early intervention. The best thing about Autism, IMO, is that, while it can't be "cured" per say, with things like therapy, diet, and in some cases medication, some Autistic kids can lead fairly "normal" lives. My opinion, and it is JUST my opinion, it could be SO much worse then Autism, and sometimes, when things are at their worst, you have to say that to yourself (at least I do- it's a comfort to me). I would suggest reading up on sites such as www.autism-society.org www.maapservices.org www.nichcy.org Good luck with the evaluation and finding out all the info you can now. Anne -- Hello!

I have caught the soapmaking bug, and it bit hard! My husband is getting so tired of listening to me talk and talk and talk some more about how into this I am, and what I'd like to do, and how do I get hooked up with someone who knows what they're doing so I can ask for guidance, etc.... I started out making soaps for Christmas presents this past holiday, and fell in love. It was microwavable glycerin from Micheal's, and it was easy enough, but I don't have any fragrances, or colors, or different ingredients, or the know-how to do any of the above mentioned things... So, here I am, and I hope you can help me find my way around! Thank you all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Hi , Welcome to the group. It is a group none of us would have wanted to join for the reasons that we have but knowing that we have each other to deal with this stuff helps. I had been having a-fib and svt's before my Sudden Cardiac Arrest. Luckily for me I was already in the hospital when it happened. I was admitted because my Potassium was extremely low and they did not know why my body was dumping it. Because of the Arrest and low Potassium I developed LongQT and that is why I ended up with my AICD. I do know that Magnesium and Potassium go hand-in-hand. I am on oral Potassium supps and it seems to be helping. No warning signs whatsoever, except my magnesium levels were really low on admittance....any of you heard of a low magnesium/cardiac arrest connection? I have some theories.....

This list seems like a great bunch of people. I'm 38, female w/Marfan's and had cardiac arrest on May 29. Thanks to being in a public place with a nearby defib and off-duty EMTs, I am alive (hurray!!). According to my family, I passed out, had CPR (didn't work), then was de-fibbed. Fell into a coma, woke up a day later, and miraculously had no permanent damage. Had the ICD implanted on June 2. The doctors were surprised this happened to me, we had all been more prepared for an eventual mitral valve replacement or even an aortic dissection than a cardiac arrest. No warning signs whatsoever, except my magnesium levels were really low on admittance....any of you heard of a low magnesium/cardiac arrest connection? I have some theories..... One of the big challenges for me is trying to piece together all the events that happened during that week, since I had short-term memory loss. As far as the ICD, I think I've adjusted pretty well (until the first ZAP hits anyway!) Well, thanks for letting me bend your ear. I look forward to sharing information and learning more about our bionic parts! in Kansas C.Ann McAllister Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 Hi Kendra, welcome to the site, it is a real cross section of skills and job types on here, you have US EMS, UK Paramedics, guys that have moved to remote areas such as Iraq etc, rig medics and a whole lot more. Its a great site for sharing information and getting more knowledge. Cheers Tony Kendra McKinley <life_saveremt@...> wrote: Hello to everyone! I just wanted to introduce myself to the group. My name is Kendra. I live in Kansas in the US. I am getting ready to take the National Registry in 2 weeks for Paramedic. I have been in EMS for just over 3 years now. While in paramedic class, they mentioned how we could be paramedics in many different places, most of which I was unaware of. When I happened to come across this group, I thought I would join to see how things are done in other areas of the world, as I am sure there are differences. I have worked for a private company before doing mostly transfers, however I am now going to work for a 911 system. If anyone is interested in telling me where they are from, I would enjoy finding out information. Thank you for letting me join your world and am looking forward to finding out about the people in this group! Stay safe and take care!

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2005 Report Share Posted November 22, 2005 Camilla: You see, I use the word " wirklich " pretend being " fluent " in speaking German. All you need to do is shake your head up and down and occasionally say " wirklich!?! " I do this to amuse a childhood friend of mine and another mutual German friend of ours who lives near furt in a Lauterbach. Its the running joke every 5 years of so it seems to take us to get together and I of course, use my fluency to its best... My son's name is Bryce - he can be partially described as energetic, stubborn, brilliant, obstinate, clever, & wise beyond his years. Bryce was part of the Phase 1 VPA study and continues to receive such therapy (we think he really has benefited from the VPA & Carnitine). His sister is, age 3, is equally dimensional in her personality traits - though her's must include pretty princess & ballerina. She tested positive for the genetic traits causing SMA, but unexplainable by various doctors, she has no symptoms - either by the naked eye or by clinical measurement. As a matter of fact, she's at dance school this moment... Anyway, Ich musse machen die spas (no clue if that is correct in any way)...I bin fleissig (I am industrious)...tag und wie gehts.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Hi Mitch, you gave me a good laugh! > All you need to do is > shake your head up and down and occasionally say > " wirklich!?! " :-) That reminds me of a friend of mine who came back from L.A. where she worked as an au-pair girl for one year. When talking to her she only nodded and said: " Ok, .... ok,.... " . If you visit your friends in Lauterbach again just let me know (if you like), I live near furt. ( " Wirklich? " - " Ok! " ) LOL What you told me about your children sounds wonderful. I love children and am very happy my brother will be father in some month. He and his wife run some genetically tests on SMA but they all were negative. So the doctor told them, they can relax, the baby can get any other handicap but no SMA. My brother was told that it is unusual and that it may be that my SMA is a mutation. To find this out my parents could be tested but we decided against it. It doesn't matter now and the tests cost much money. > Anyway, Ich musse machen die spas (no clue if that is > correct in any way)...I bin fleissig (I am > industrious)...tag und wie gehts. Mitch Your german is great! Have a nice day, Camilla ______________________________________________________________ Verschicken Sie romantische, coole und witzige Bilder per SMS!
