Hi,

I beat my 21 yr old to the putor today. He is going to school, and I am home.

I take every chance I can to contact someone on line. I have 'cyber

freinds " , I guess you could say.

Anyway, I dont even know your name. Is it , our Custom? hehe.

Oh, by the way that class action suit was in 3 parts had we have won.

We also have had to call the school district on it a few times, and the state

has sent investagators here 5 times to check on them.

Last year I had a compliance complaint. Within 30 days of contacting the

state, via email, I had my $1400.00 owed money for tutoring services done in

my home. Whew.

My son attends a small non-public school, for children with special needs,

that cannot do well on a public campus. Danny kept trying to 'leave school'.

We are not sure why, my husband says Danny didnt like the school.

He likes to explore. I guess.

We have found that Danny loves water and dirt, more than anything in the

world. Thinking that he would enjoy the hot tub, we let him in it. He was

very happy and excited. He would go under the water, and try to float on his

bath. It was great. Then he started taking in handfuls of dirt, yuck. Oh

yeah, he also has a slight allergic reaction to something in the water. I

only know two other people that do. It is something in the water, that lives

there. Most people are not bothered by it.

I have found that limiting his time in the hot tub, and taking a shower right

away, helps. I have not seem any hives or rash. It does not calm him down.

What things have you tried to help your child, along with the diet. Tell me

about your child. Ok ?

Ahhh. Got it. Hope you win in your class action suit! :-) Will keep in touch

for sure- at least we don't have to be lonely. That is how I felt when we

first got the diagnosis, but now it is great to know we are not traveling

this journey alone!
