Reward for staying W/SC DIET! Two week update

Dearest One Alana, alana@...

For your daughter!

Cool Black Cat with Green Eyes Go to this site (link below) to see something

awesome! I have no clue how they got this to work. There are some great code

writers out there! If you tease her with the mouse pointer on her chest or

stomach she will purr, I got her to meow also, by rubbing her forehead with the

pointer. If you make a slow circle around her body, (counter-clockwise) not

only will her head/eyes follow your pointer, but toward the top, her paw will

go up, and when in front of her paws at the bottom, her foot comes out like

she wants to play with your mouse pointer. (Don't hold the mouse down, just

move it) Enjoy!

Hello all,

today marks two weeks on SCD for my 13 year old daughter with

Aspergers. What have we got so far?

-increased eye contact

-headbanging GONE/severely reduced. Have not seen this behaviour in days.

-more smiles, she says she's happier

-she's initiating conversations. EVEN WHEN UPSET. Wow. I overheard

the other day, her speaking with her 11 year old sister: " Why do you

always act that way? It's so weird! Don't you know you are weird when

you act that way? " ....well, a bit of the pot calling the kettle black,

but also, it was a very normal type conversation for an annoyed 13 year

old to be having with an annoying 11 year old. I was thrilled.

-unexpected quips and comments and a sense of humor about the daily

things in life.

-tolerated a long trip to Walmart (her least favorite place ever) with

me yesterday with nary a complaint, panic attack or anything.

-Did I mention she's initiating conversations? Eyecontact? I'm so

thrilled! Thrilled I say!

And it's only going to get better, I'm sure.
