airial95 Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 It doesn't mention PANDAS specifically - and I don't know the authors, but the thoughts were so familiar, they touched me - I'll be sharing it with others all day. Happy Halloween!!! Lakeland Ledger Halloween Letter to the Editor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Great reminder. This is the toughest holiday for dd7. Her OCD has always been centered around clothing- you can imagine the costume issue- Furthermore, I forever battle yeast with her, and don't allow food dyes. School is one big sugar fest, with a loud parade to boot. It's a half day, the pressure kills her, and I allow her to stay home - much to her great relief, although every year we spend hours trying to encourage her.... :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peglem Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Great letter, but I need it expanded to include: When a child insists on entering your home and doing a ritual dance under your ceiling fan, they may just have OCD issues triggered by ceiling fans. Seriously, glad my daughter is too old to trick or treat. We did have a decent time trick or treating one year out of her whole childhood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
