Lilima, I ran out to the street this arvo when you dropped off dinner but you had already left I wanted to say Hello! Thank you so much for dinner, the lasagne was awesome!
Yeah Christy - Wanted to give you guys your privacy. Hope it was Ok. I am no goumet cook! My parents live so close by. Just the other side of Canterbury Rd. I could walk there!!! I grew up in the area, so when I saw the address, it was weird, as I knew exactly which street it was!
i'm still picking up my jaw off the ground about lulu...
i havent been in here for ages, and have been checking her blog daily wondering why she hadn't updated
Im in shock i really am... she was so inspirational to me - full of advice for me with Nate...
Just back from the opto. Princess is 'extremely long sighted'.
He also was pointing out some 'spectrum' traits of hers.
He said to her "Start at one and then go on with 2, 3, 4, 5."
She did 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and stopped. And I noted to him that you need to do this. If you are telling her she needs to pick up her toys, you cant say "dolls and stuff" or she will only pick up the dolls. You need to itemise every single item. If you do that and miss just one item, sure as beans that item will stay right where it is.
Pains my bank account, but they are trying to get her glasses in by saturday at the latest so she wont have to start school without them.
Sorry a selfish post here... we are just starting to move house... which is a nightmare at the best of times. Trying to explain to DS1 that we have a new house now etc and argh!
Anyway some good news, met with the deputy principal today and he will have an aide start with him on Wed, so pleased! They are more than willing to work with us and implement the things we are doing at home and in therapy. I feel so much more relaxed about it all now. I'm sure he'll be fine
Take care ladies x I'll be in and out over the next week or so until we get moved completely (hopefully next weekend!)
HA- hope the glasses go well. Love her literal response
EK- Hope the move goes well! We're moving next weekend!
Christy- I hope the info has been helping and Cyclone is doing okay.
Has anyone tried any natural therapies for autism? Im considering getting a hair analysis done for my son to check his levels of minerals and heavy metals and possiblly do some detox if needed. He's such a fussy eater I cant see us getting anything in but apparently clay baths work for getting rid of mercury, which is often found to be high in children with autism.
Also, can I ask how everyone here feels about vaccinating? We vaccinated our son and I'm still thinking it was a good idea and the science doesn't show a link but, you know, mother guilt creeps in...
We have immunised and will continue to do so. Our boys have weaker immune system from being born early, so the vacs are a bit of a booster and peace of mind. I don't think they have anything to do with Autism, Brendan has been "different" since he was born.
I've had Brendan at a naturopath to look at diet, by reducing dairy and wheat we have seen some improvements.
I wanted to say Hello! Thank you so much for dinner, the lasagne was awesome!
