Can anyone help me?

[Guest guest]

Hey ...<br><br> I have the same problem

that you do, and the first thing to do is to get a

brace that is specially made for tracking.You have to

get it through a referral from the doctor. The taping

will help, and the excersizes are very important!

Hopefully the brace and the therapy will help if your

tracking problem is too severe, then the can a do a

lateral release which is what I had done. I hope that you

have good luck, take care and God Bless... E-mail me

if you need

I believe that the only way to get a letter of endorsement of HBOT for your

son is to have a physician (who accepts HBOT) to evaluate him. And, if in

fact you are going to do HBOT, then the Medical Director of that center

would be able to do this as well.

What center do you plan to use? Do they have a physician as a Medical

Director?

Best Wishes,

It happened to us....

They took our baby away to " wash " her.. nobody ever asked us if we approved

HepB, nobody told us they were even thinking about doing it... but it's on

the pediatrician's vaccine records. It's glaringly obvious that there is no

parent approval signature. That was also in 1998.

It's my understanding that the law require that ALL vaccines be recorded in

the pediatrician's " immunization " records for the child, not just the ones

given in the pediatrician's office. Please look at your child's vaccine

records to see if the birth HepB is on it... and if there's a parent

signature. I wouldn't suggest telling the doc your interest in that point

when you ask for a copy; just say you want a copy. They have to maintain it

and they have to give you a copy. And it has to have manufacturer and lot

number.

It sounds like the hospital, or pediatrician at the hosptal, did indeed

inject HepB in your child against your wishes and without your approval.

[Guest guest]

did you authorize the vaccines later on? if not, get a blood test and see if she is immune. not 100% accurate since my son did get the shots and is NOT immune but in your case, if she never had them, and she was positive, you would have a law suit on your hands.

Can anyone help me?

In 1998, I told my Midwife we didn't want the Hep B for our baby. Ihad it written down on my birth plan. In the middle of the night,they took our baby and gave her her PKU test. This was the only timeshe was out of our sight. After her test, my huband checked her anddidn't see any puncture mark. When they gave me her birth info, Inoticed the Hep B box was checked. I called the hospital (twice) andasked if she had her Hep B and they said no. I've been wondering allthese years if she had the hep b. What do you think?

Hi NewAspie,

Welcome to the forum.

The key to involving yourself with women is just to be yourself. Talk

to her. Talk with her. If she is interested, she will eventually let

you know. If you wish to let her know you are interested, the best way

to do so is to ask for meetings or further meetings.

If you are only interested in being friends, just continue being

friends, but be honest with her if she says she would like to be more

than friends.

If you aren't interested, tell her you are not ready for a

relationship with her, but be sure to let her down easy. Be respectful

of her feelings.

Hey, I just found out yesterday that I have AS. That explained why I

can never tell if a girl is interested, and when I do, I don't know

how I should respond to say:

1)I'm interested

2)I'm only interested in being friends

3)I'm not interested

[Guest guest]

thanks, and I was kind of asking because I'm moving into High School

next year, and I know that women have 52 different ways of telling a

guy that they are interested, I only know 2 of them. Guys have an

amazing(drumroll)10(cymbol crashes) different ways of telling a girl

that they are interested, I know 1. Life's amazing, isn't it?

[Guest guest]

Wow 52 ways! I'm not sure I know of any of them - think the direct

approach is the easiest and then that is hard, but generally after I

have plucked up the courage I just tell a guy I am interested - I

can't do all that subtle flirting, body touching non aspie social

stuff.

I know that guys often find women confusing, but sometimes it works

both ways - some guys can send out very confusing signals too.

I would be interested in knowing what these 52 ways are and also what

the 10 ways are a guy has - not that I'd be likely to understand or

recognise them even if I know them - but still would be interesting

to know - mostly because I just like knowing things :-)

Hi newaspie and welcome to our Secret Society.

I have been female all my life (and trust me, that's a lot of years

at this point) and I have no idea what you mean when you say that

women have 52 ways of teeling a guy that they are interested. I also

have known a number of guys (not in the Biblical sense of knowing a

guy but knowing as in business colleages and such), and I have never

heard any of them speak of 10 different ways of telling a girl that

they are interested in the girl.

Could you please share some of those different ways? I'm not making

fun of you here. I really, honestly do NOT know any of these ways to

which you are referring.

I find that honesty is the ONLY way to deal with any situation,

whether it's personal or professional.

I think the 52 ways for females and the 10 ways for males was probably

a metaphor for describing pick up patterns for the sexes. I doubt if

anyone has defined specifically how many ways there actually are.

It's impossible. If she's interested she'll let you know. It can take a long time to find a decent girl. Don't settle for the first one who comes up to you. No matter what you do you nothing is good enough. newaspie <newaspie@...> wrote: Hey, I just found out yesterday that I have AS.

When I was single and my boyfriend was single, we had a great

friendship already established. YAY! This is by far the most

important part of our relationship.

That being said, one day we were trying to figure out if there was

the possibility for more and the question for both of us was, " Are

you or are you not interested in me in that way? "

I have stated often that this relationship is the best relationship I

have ever had in a personal relationship situation. Why? Because we

built on friendship first and made sure both of us knew exactly where

we stood across the many months we were friends.

I believe that the way things progressed with us pretty much covered

all three of newaspie's questions and there was no pressure to hurry

through any of the questions because we started off in friendship and

kept friendship as the basis of the relationship as we moved further

into our relationship.

Raven

Building on what Raven wrote, I think Aspies have a tendency to want

things finalized and secure.

If you give an Aspie parameters, they can operate within those

parameters.

Relationships may be problematic for Aspies because they involve two

people who have led two separate lives who are trying to become a

unit.

Whereas one person can go through their day and do whatever they want

without telling anyone, relationships involve constant communication

and compromises, and concessions, and every day brings something

different and unexpected.

This is why you cannot just push someone into a relationship, say it

is a relationship, and expect it to work.

My opinion is the same as Raven's, and maybe this is why we are good

for each other. Being friends first seems to work best. Friends

respect one another, they make compromises with one another, they do

things for one another, sometimes expecting reciprocity, sometimes

not. When you have friendship as a model for a loving relationship, I

think you tend to argue less, particularly if you remember that you

are indeed friends.

One of the good thing about women is that with their gentleness and

caring, they remind us that people ought to be treated uniquely,

because we are all unique.

Sometimes though, women can be quite the opposite.

Well I think in my case it depends on my mood and also how far someone

has pushed me :-)

I might be kind and caring, but push me far enough and for long enough

and the not so nice side comes out.

I think for the most part, women are, by nature, quieter and gentler

and more nurturing in their approach to life whereas men are more, by

nature, hunters (for lack of a better word). Mind you, this does not

mean that women cannot draw the line when a less quiet and less

gentle approach is required just as this does not mean that men

cannot also be quiet and gentle. In fact, for me, I much prefer men

who are not only hunters but who are also gentle (yes, such men DO

exist). :-)

Well, , they are few and far between and are not always as easy to

spot as one might think but they ARE in living in the NT world. They

I think the best candidates for partners are people who are self-

assured enough that they don't need to brag about themselves or set

up a false image of themselves. Bragging and setting up false images

are smokescreens that hide vulnerabilities and shortcomings.

At the same time, people should not be so self-assured as to be stuck

up. None of us are perfect and we all have issues.

It is best to be yourself. When you display yourself as you are,

someone who is looking for somebody like you will find you quicker.

With that said, there are some out there who are LOOKING for an image

and who are looking for that image to be sustained. Shallow women may

want a rock 'em, sock 'em cowboy guy, and shallow men may want only

model material.

I suppose if those types of people cannot help but be shallow, then

those people are cut out for each other.

Looks can be deceiving though. I was introduced to my husband and I

think most people would perceive him as the above mentioned type. He

has tattoos, had a pony tail, was working as a bouncer at a bar but I

met him at his apartment when a friend of mine went to give him a

haircut (we were both in beauty school at the time). I was taken in by

his intellectual conversation, smooth jazz music playing in the

background and mauve colored walls with fabulous paintings.

Please excuse me in Reading Kim's post I believe this statement

applies. We are taught from the first time we go to school that

people lie, overinflate and seek to decieve. In kindergarten being

sneaky is often rewarded. I have heard parents agree that a child's

act was horrid (but at the same time ingenious) as we age it is up to

us to decide a life of illusion or truth. I feel Aspies like truth,

because in truth there is solution. in lies there is only confusion,

even the term white lies is unessary, being silent out of respect or

regard should be ok but if asked truth should be given.

I always got an answer from my mother that was honest (yes she was

abusive and violent) But she valued and rewarded intelligence and she

would entertain rational discussion. She also crushed any self

esteem I had, but that is not the focus.

I think that is what held me together, reasoning and truth and

searching for that in reality. which also depressed me when it was

hard to locate. Relationships are often founded on a platform of

misconception, as Tom stated Beauty or personna

To the Autistc there are torture. Either we are disallusioned and

hurt by the lies, or we feel we must be apt liars. Our learning

structure is not set up for Aspies to be successful. We spend so

much time wading through muck to find truth or lying to make another

happy. It is foolish and costly, and really everyone pays.

children, families, society. Tom I do wish aspies ran things from

the top down. real solutions, no delusions, no lying to make people

feel good. Doing your best without cheating. punishment for

cheating (of any kind) and reward for good, hard earnest work. So

simple yet so crazy.

A footnote, I called my state rep to help the child I mentioned. I

feel perhaps we may get results (i really hope I haven't been lied

to) mimi
