Guest guest Posted October 16, 2000 Report Share Posted October 16, 2000 Peggy, I have eaten meat all my life but 5 years ago when I got MCS I tried the vegges route. That didn't seem to do anything so i just cut back on meat and only ate it once in a while. Last week I was in a discount store and picked up a book for $4.00 (probably wouldn't have bought it if it had been full price - so many books, so many theories that didn't work.) Itis called Sick and Tired by o. Young and Redfore Young. I think they are out of Utah. Their theory is based on the acid/alkaline theory. That as long as your body is acidic you will continue to be sick. They also believe that we start out with bacteria in our body and it turns to virus and then turns to mold which is the begining stage of cancer. That would explain why tests sometimes do not show certain things. For some reason, the acid/alkaline theory makes sense to me. I am going to try to do the low acidic veggies and skip the meat and milk and eggs for a while and see what happens. The book has a lot of information in it and I can't put it down once I start. If anyone is familiar with this book or anyone who has tried the more alkaline approach to get your system in better shape I would appreciate your input. Thanks ss.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2001 Report Share Posted January 25, 2001 Oh Cameron, I so totally agree. I haven't been on this list for long & I haven't ever posted yet but I read your message & had to tell you that you are not alone! I cry over this decision too. I feel scared to vaccinate my son (9 mos) and scared not to. My husband feels like your does but is deferring to me on this one - good & bad. I hate to bear the weight of this decision on my own! Anyway, just wanted to say I know how you feel! Hopefully we can get some helpful information that can make us more sure of what to do. :-) new member Hi! My name is Cameron and dh and I have a daughter who's 20 months old. She had one vaccine (HepB) in the hospital at birth - of which I have no recollection of giving approval for. My friend encouraged me to research vaccines, of which I had assumed we would do, no questions asked. But, after looking at a few sites on the internet, it was enough for dh and me to pause and question things. We had thought we'd compromise and vaccinate at age 12, when her immune system was mature, but have since heard that would be even worse on her system. Right now, we are at odds in figuring out what we want to do. Dh gets frustrated (and rightfully so) at scare tactics from both sides. There is so much info out there, we don't know who to trust. There are pros and cons of BOTH sides, we just have to figure out which is more " con " for us. Which is why I've joined this email list. I just start to cry whenever we talk about vaccinating our dd, the terror of something happening to her because we were trying to HELP her is just unthinkable. Yet, I don't know if I'm just being emotional about it more than intellectual. I would appreciate any advice having to do with couples who disagree on this issue, as well as some easy to read/understand info on this topic. I also get scared that when she reaches school-age, we'll be targeted for child neglect or something. I'm also a little unsure of how to write a waiver to be legally valid - we're facing that issue now with considering putting her in part-time daycare. Thanks for all your help!

Any way they do it, sometimes the speeding up/slowing down/evening out is what's REQUIRED in order to help a person be able to attend long enough TO learn.

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2003 Report Share Posted September 18, 2003 kristine, you really are in serious need of getting someone in to do a functional behavioral assessment on this child. You have to find out what the triggers are. You need to have the school get a behavioral specialists...One who has been trained to look for sensory integrative triggers in autistic children. There is a reason that it is happening. It in NOT just non-compliance/violent behavior. There is ALWAYS a reason. The child needs a sensory diet throughout the day. The child needs a communication system set up. Remember Less talking MORE visual aids. As their level of stress rises they are less likely to respond well to verbal commands. It sounds like if you actually do know what time this is occuring you should be doing some propreoceptive input at that time to ward off these " attacks " . Brushing program/ deep pressure massage. Push/Pull/Carry heavy objects. Lots of different alternatives here...but definatly do something . WHat you are currently doing is obviously not working. I hope this helps...you AND the child! tina yows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We look forward to seeing a lot of you in Japan! Ros International Conferences on Community Health Nursing Research (ICCHNR) has made a second announcement of its 3rd international conference, which represents an exciting opportunity for community nursing practitioners, researchers and educators from across the world to come together to share research and new developments in the practice of nursing in primary health care.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 When my husband had his hips resurfaced, his doctor was using the new technique for knees. The person who was operated on after Ed, had her knees done- the operation took over 4 hrs, but the next day she was up and in very little pain. When I asked Dr Mont he said most drs do not want to take the time!
