Guest guest Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 Hello everyone, Tyler has been acting really strangely the past couple weeks and I can't figure it out (then again I can't figure out much of anything lately). He is on his " ON " round of TOBI and that is when I noticed things going astray. Hi cough has become much more junky, dark circles under his eyes, more tired than usual, and BOUNCING off the walls......it's like someone pumped him full of caffeine and sugar. He started Kindergarten and is having problems listening. He has been sent to the principal's office already, and gets red crayons most of the time. (It's their behavioral scale, Green-good, Yellow-think before you act, Red-bad), I'm not sure if his tiredness is coming from school or him coming down with something health wise. I know that if Tyler has anything with artificial red dye in it, he goes haywire...but I know he has not had anything red. Does anyone have any ideas on what could be causing this? Could he becoming allergic to TOBI for some odd reason? He hasn't eaten anything out of the ordinary, hasn't been doing any activities out of the ordinary. On a different and more personal note: Do you ever wonder WHY things always happen to you and ONLY you? I've been doing a lot of that the last several months. I'll give you a couple of examples....out of 30 classmates, YOUR schedule is the only one that gets messed up and no way of fixing it....Out of 30 cl assmates YOUR handout is the only handout missing pages....You're out to lunch with friends and YOUR lunch order is the only one messed up....should I keep going on? nah! you get the point. It's not just the little things I'm talking about here....I'm talking about life altering things that are happening and none of it is my fault....it's always a " freak of nature " thing I've always been very good at understanding the reason why things happen, but I can't find those reasons anymore. I can't figure out what I have done to be the chosen one of disasters. It seems as though my leprechaun has disappeared or someone has stolen all my good luck and left me with just the bad luck. Can anyone please show me how to find the " reasons " again...better yet, find my Leprechaun? I would offer a reward but the " freaks of nature " has left me dry!!

I have talk to the doctor about it and they tell me that the tobi can irritate some peoples throat. I also think it does make them more tired too. I try to stress that with her teacher when she is on the tobi. Have you thought about asking you doctor about using Collistin instead. Neither one of my daughters have had any problems with Collistin. Also when I am having a day like you have had today I think about my cousins son that is 15 now. My cousin was killed a motorcycle accident about 14 years ago. That's right his mother died when he was a year old. Now about 2 months ago his father died of a heart attack. He has now know parents at all!! We need to really realize that these little things are nothing compared to having each other. This 15 years old has had bad things happen to him since the day he was born. When my cousin delivered him she got the chicken pox and they both had to stay in the hospital and had to be quarantine in a room for a week. Him and his Dad were also homeless for a while too. I think he has never coped with the loss of my cousin because he was the one driving the motorcycle that killed her. So my cousins son has really not had much of a break in his life and things have been tough for him I just hope and pray it gets better for him. I hope this helps.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 Dawn, I believe it is God's way of getting us ready for even harder things(a little at a time). I know that when I read some of the posts that I am very thankful that I have a wonderful family and that is having a good day and that I still have her. I am also very thankful that she likes to eat and is very active. Some days it is very hard to see things in a positive light. Be thankful you have friends to have lunch with and maybe Tyler acting strange is just a phase he is going through this month. Hope you are having a better day.
