better!

[pr40]

there are not enough posts about improvement. here is one. Today we are much, much better than we were a year ago. We are not out of the woods yet and life is still difficult but it does not seem hopeless as it used to.

here is what we did:

1) abx, for a year now. Augmentin and Zitrhomax

2) gluten free, casin free, sugar free, and then also night-shades free -- not as hard as you'd think if you have basic cooking skills and time

3) supplements -- many anti-inflamatories, magnesium, zinc, vitamin D. we also expereimented with methylation supplements but I am not sure what worked.

4) behavior -- there were times when nothing worked. when they are approachable rewards do motivate them as do frequent time outs, time alones, which help them calm down and regroup.

5) total dedication to them by both parents. we are older didn't mind much not being able to do anything other than high maintenance for the kids.

6) reading this forum. it calms me down and, of course, this is where I find my best advice.

thank you all
