*breath in Breath out* my little mantra for life atm.... just remember to keep breathing....
Matilda injured her neck Wednesday arvo right before we went to the paed. When we got there she had full movement so he didn't worry. She hurt it jumping off the top bunk... yep thats right.... anyway so I took her to the physio on Thursday because she is holding her head crooked and saying it hurt. When I got there they told me to keep her quiet for a few days. OMG are they serious??? I laughed and said "sure" then today we went back because we have to go daily for 3 days. So anyway... we see a different physio today. One that I used to see 8 years ago when we lived here before. She's had 2 children since then & was asking about Matilda... I had to explain that Matilda seeks vestibular sensory experiences and wants to fall and jump and get dizzy and she seeks it all the time. She then was trying to work on Matilda's neck which was like pulling teeth without a GA. At the end she said to me "you know this isn't normal behaviour? Don't you do dog behaviour?? You should know..." I burst into tears "Yes, I know this isn't normal behaviour, yes I do work in animal behaviour, yes I know that I should be doing something about it... I have tried, I have kicked, I have screamed and I have been put aside and been told that it is bad parenting and I'm over it. Someone has to start listening to me, but no one is at the moment." She just stared at me. She said "what about Aspect?" my answer "I've phoned, I've left messages, I've emailed and I've even gone in person and knocked on the door (its only 500m from my new house!!)" She just stared at me again and said "You must be exhausted." and shook her head, jumped up and gave Matilda a stamp and said she wasn't allowed to scream until Christmas. If only wishes came true!!!
