Dear --

Was there a traumatic time in your child's life when she became fearful of

vomiting? Be reassuring and empathic and ask her to try a little bit of

food-even a large crumb. However, it seems that you need to go back to your

doctor and explain what is happening. She will become seriously ill with

lack of sleep and food and may need to be hospitalized. Obviously, this is a

most serious problem that needs expert care. I know, as a parent, how

terribly trying this must be, but you need to find the best care for your

little girl. Give her lots of praise when she is doing anything okay and

find a good behavioral therapist. But please get medical attention quickly.

Sincerely,

Dr. Barbara Freedman (brbfreed@...)

Dear Masoud--

I know that you expect your child to do all of the chores which you list--and

they probably are within reason--however, please remember that she has only

been on the planet for 5 and a half years and is still a child-and a young

one at that. It is my suggestion that you try token economy or chip trading

(poker chips). She earns one chip each time she does anything--i.e. brush

her teeth, pick up clothes, even one sock, put on her clothes--even one

item--the object is to reward her for anything positive that she does. She

can lose chips for being disrespectful, not complying the first time, etc.

She can " buy " things with her chips, i.e. extra time with dad or mom, extra

story, a bubble bath, extra half hour to stay up, desert, friend over, go to

a friends, park, etc. There is really more to this but I am sure you can get

the gist. Let me know what happens.

This is only a suggestion and may not work in your home-but stay with it for

several months.

Sincerely,

Dr. Barbara Freedman

We've been in touch with the doctor right along and are adjusting Jess'

medication. Also looking for a CBT. In the meantime -- and as a temporary

measure -- she started anti-anxiety meds that are helping her sleep and

helping her eat more.

Yes, she did have trauma related to vomiting; her grandmother (my mom) died

of ovarian cancer and vomited at the end. Tho Jess never saw her vomiting,

she was aware of it, and on the day my mom died, Jess came down with a

vomiting virus. Bad timing. The two were very close and I was away for 3

weeks caring for my mom as she died...so there's separation anxiety mixed

in. But it seems we'll never be able to undo the damage; it's been a year

and a half and she's had viruses since then. She knows people throw up and

get better, and that her grandma died of cancer, not vomiting. Maybe

(probably?) something else would have triggered her OCD if this incident

hadn't.

Anyway, I know her OCD is very serious and I'm on top of it. She's slept

through the night for 3 nights now and actually ate some dinner last night!

Breakfasts have been keeping her going...that's the time of day of lowest

anxiety for her.

Thanks for the input.

With the dieters, Energy Healing and Love bath recipes how do you mix them

up? I am not sure what the outcome is either. Is it a liquid. gel or solid?

Sorry for the trouble, new at this!!! Thanks though,

Not an answer but a comment: if you have been taking something and it has

been helping you, keep on taking it. Dr. D'D's recommendations are pretty

general. If you could consult with him, he might well recommend just what

you're taking for your condition. Tha't how I figure it anyway.

I again started taking the multivitamin and mineral I had been taking (and

benefiting from). I had stopped when I started the diet and I wasn't making

the progress I thought I should. The multi kicked in and my progress

improved.

Our lives and health are probably the most up close science experiment we'll

ever be close to. We need to pay attention to what we can feel helping us.

Of course, we stay open to new info like the diet, but we know better than

anybody how it feels inside. We need to trust that too.

Would love to see the 25 tips on floortime. We are in Atlanta area and the

one person who did floortime therapy just moved to Denver, so after one

visit, which was great, we are back to looking for others with information.

Diane,

I was stage 2/3 and went on the combo for 24 weeks at which time I was

undetectable and the treatment was stopped. At my 6 month post check-up the

virus had returned and now I am now on a roller coaster ride between doctors

- one who says I should go back on for 48 weeks and the other two saying

they havn't seen any proof that going back on the combo after being off for

a while will bring about a sustained response. If you can tolerate the 48

weeks I would recommend staying on to try and increase your chances of

sustaining a reponse. Good luck to you whatever choice you make!

I am just so disgusted that Owens-Corning has filed bankruptcy to avoid

paying claims against them from ppl who became ill from asbestos. They

are doing the exact same thing to these ppl that they have done to us.

Surely, they won't be able to get away with this one, too.

<< Subject: Curves for Women

I am really excited because there is a new Curves for Women opening

soon within 3 blocks of my house!! I have heard so many great things

from all of you about Curves that I can't wait to join! Can anyone

tell me approx how much it costs to join? >>

Ok folks... here is the deal. I am an owner of a Curves so I can give you

the scoop. First of all, I am glad you all are finding out about this

terrific program. I had my MGB 3/20/00 and have lost 108 lbs. My saggy skin

definately isn't bad at all thanks to this program. Most everyone who

answered had the the cost pretty much right. It is $29 a month on a check

draft program. That means it comes automatcially out of your checking

account and is guaranteed never to increase. If it is any other way, it is

39 a month. There is a one time service of $149. Depending on the special

of the month that amount can change from between 49 to 79. At this time

" most " clubs are offering 50% off the 149 plus the first month free. Also

keep in mind that if you do the check draft program you can work out at any

Curves. If you are month to month it is not guranteed to increase and you

can only work out at the facility you joined. There are now over 2000 Curves

in United States.

the autopsy dude. I really need to start researching my treatment

choices, l want to stay on alternative treatment when i go on conventual

alternative tx is going so well. I have lost the yellow tinge to my skin

and eyes and alot of my flu symptoms have eased up. Anyone have any

ideas?? I think that i have taken on way to may projects right now and

the stress is making me exhausted. I have two wedding dresses,

bridesmaid dresses, headpieces to make before Oct. Will someone teach me

Gee, and in my younger days, we were always looking for those girls that didn't know how to say no... Where were they then!! Seriously, though, I would try not to take on too much responsibility. You may have a hard time finding the energy, especially if and when you start the combo. Also I would like to warn you about asking for a kick start..... -dz-
