Hi everyone, I am new to this site. I have a two and a half year old

with apraxia. He says 2 word approximations and 3 consonant sounds. For

those of you who have kids who aren't talking at all yet, I was just

wondering if your SLP's work on isolated letter sounds or if they work on

syllables. Any advice would greatly be appreaciated!! Also, I have an 8

month old who already babbles more than my son talks. Any suggestions

for praising her when she talks without causing my son's self esteem to

plummet?

Thanks,

Marissa

The purpose of this and other forums for BI women is to support each other in

this

journey.

> Hello my actual name is ,I read the mission statement and wanted to

respond

but too ask some questions. The symptoms listed are nearly 100% what has crept

in to my

body & everyday life for the past 5 yrs. Although, there are some I would like

to mention

that I am inquiring if anyone may also suffer with as well.List:Auto Immune

Disorder (NOT

to be confused w/AIDS)Fibromyalg1aChronic FatigueMigrainesLoss or interrupted

sleepMemory loss/ Confusion> >I have seen a plethora of Dr.'s w/conclusive tests

that the

above mentioned began with a slow onset to having the Implants. I have been

placed on

Perm Disability and have both Private as well as Medicare Ins which both paid

for the

removal of the implants due to the conclusive finding that these symptoms were

brought

on as the result of the Saline w/Silicone En-Capsule (shell) Implants.> >As I

am sure most

here have done, my research has been extensive with the intent to both inquire

but also

inform other women. Initially I was told I was of the infamous 1% who suffered

with these

ailments post surgery. What I have found in the " black hole " of " intentional "

withheld and

hidden medical information and the untold amount of woman who have made their

stories

available… deserves collective action in a multitude of ways!I have been in the

trenches of

both holistic and western remedies along with availing myself to ALL things

relative to

keep myself informed, pro-active and moving towards or should I say back… to a

functional life. I worry so because I am thus far strong Willed enough to

uncover discover

and remain trudging through the daily abyss of overcoming some or all of these

symptoms ~daily. What gravely concerns me is that there is a " running thread "

with the

vast majority of us that lends itself to surrendering to a No

return…Hopelessness. Too, the

common physical and mental mantra of " isolation " , especially where it concerns

our

outward appearance & the blanket of those who have " sworn " to do No Harm " and

their

availing themselves to us with Direction but also a Solution. I am a Wife and

Mommy with

ALL the trimmings of my place in many peoples life. I have and remain with the

ferociousness to be of Service, make a Difference w/some added bonus of an

Italian bust a

move~ WOMAN~. Admittedly I am most days worn down to only my Will with knee

burns

from prayer that I can endure the day with a wink to the Heavens for a Miracle.

My

question to you the reader is: Collectively could we exchange information, give

US a place

on the Map and remain dedicated to help ourselves Iin turn HELP those thus far

are

blessed to have this arena but reach further to the masses who so far remain in

ignorant

silence?Thank you for your time, your fight and for your Bravery!With deep

gratitude,

,

Welcome back!

I'm glad to hear you've made it through you explant.

Hopefully some of your symptoms are starting to

recede!

As to getting the word out about breast implants, all

I can say is that we've been trying! . . . The

proimplant people appear to have unlimited funds to

proclaim the glories of breast implants, while those

of us who have been injured often can barely scrape

by.

Quite a few women who've participated on this group

have appeared in the media, TV, radio, newspaper, etc.

Some have been out there speaking to whomever will

listen.

What is so strange is that, if the media can, it

distorts the message! Strange? Yes, if you still

believe the world is fair. Understandable when you

find out that the media lives off advertising dollars,

and these people don't want the truth out.

To compound that, the FDA continues to study whether

or not to approve a " new " generation of silicone gel

implants. .. . Regardless of a lack of long term

studies, obvious red flags, and the protests of those

who have been injured. Graft in the government? . . .

Who knows. Obviously that wouldn't be new!

In addition, saline implants stay on the market with

the FDA's approval - in spite of thousands of injury

report.

The part that infuriates me so much is what breast

implants are doing to the unborn and nursing children

born to women with implants! I started a group

for the parents of children injured by silcone

" SiliconeKids " . . . What I'm learning privately is

that the problems are much more serious than parents

will discuss on line, and that mothers are very

reluctant to go public with their childrens very

serious health problems.

As far as I'm concerned, this entire situtation is

beyond criminal. Since there appears to be no justice

on this earth, we can only pray the God has his own

very special plans for those who blatently injure and

kill so many.

If you have any questions about accessing the

archives, let us know.

Please share your knowledge of alternative health

measures with us. Most of us have found more relief

through alternative means than we have through

conventional medicine. Most conventional doctors

either won't, or can't, help us.

Hugs and prayers,
