They said it is a risk vs. benefit as far as the medicine goes. If he doesn't have his medicine he is a risk not only to others, but himself. As you can understand...it is so hard! It's a good thing I am able to be up with him pretty frequently, or I might just lose my mind! We were told today that it will be at least another week. Ugh! :( I will try and keep the blog updated when I have downtime!

I feel your pain. I don'...Wiping away tears... I feel your pain. I don't comment on your blog, but I do keep up with it. I've got several things to say. First of all - setting boundaries is so hard to do, especially with family and friends. Sounds like you're doing that - good for you and good for your nuclear family. The others will get over it and with any luck join your side to offer the support your family needs instead of judging what they don't know or understand. And yes moms go where we go because we will love, nurture and protect our children no matter what it takes. And us moms living in the special needs arena have to constantly draw on reserves of strength we aren't even sure we have. I'm insulted for you that you are being judged! Makes me want to hand them the "life" and tell them to do what we do for even one day... all day and hope they get one of our "bad" days. Walk a mile in the shoes, you know! But that's a daydream and when I stop to really consider it, I wouldn't want to put my son through that unneccessary stress. I can only begin to imagine how wrecked you must be this week. Is Logan still on a special diet... corn free? If so, is that being kept in mind with the meds? Don't want to add to your load... just wondering if he's getting corned or hit with something else that could be a piece to the symptoms. Due to my experiences, the first thing I usually consider is diet and more oft than not ends up being the culprit or crossing the threshold. Sending up loads of hugs and love to you, Logan and your family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3916572146752777377.post-52901573230210170162012-04-25T19:10:02.953-07:002012-04-25T19:10:02.953-07:00Thank you so much for your concern and compassion ...Thank you so much for your concern and compassion Heather. I truly appreciate it more than you know. It must be the natural instinct of a mom to go out on limbs we never dreamed we would have to go... We also did homeopathic means. I wish you the best of luck for your family as well. Take care!Autumnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18397029339368647615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3916572146752777377.post-90148270178069383582012-04-25T19:09:38.459-07:002012-04-25T19:09:38.459-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Autumnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18397029339368647615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3916572146752777377.post-34631320981235553702012-04-25T18:31:51.673-07:002012-04-25T18:31:51.673-07:00I know I don't know you Autumn, but your post ...I know I don't know you Autumn, but your post made me tear up for your family. I will never judge a loving parent who is doing everything they possibly can to help their child. When traditional medicine did nothing for my child and we started in with homeopathic means, boy did I hear the worst out of people as they saw me as trying "voodoo" on my son, which was further from the truth. Keep on whatever path is working for your son and your family and have faith in the methods you are trying. Prayers will be offered up for your family this evening as I pray nightly with each of my children and I try to make sure each one of them understands that other families have struggles too and need prayers just like we do:) My heart goes out to you from one mom to another just trying to make the best decisions for our children. -HeatherHeatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13680746217712009762noreply@blogger.com
