kcarroll - 2011-10-07 10:21 AM Hi Ghouligans! Sorry I've been AWOL. Life has been a bit unsettled lately. Some good friends battling life threatening illnesses have been at the forefront of my attention. I also had a rough week professionally. We laid off a number of really good people and I'm pretty depressed about the whole thing. And to be a total Debbie Downer, I am going to defer NYC. Hip just is not cooperating. Although I must say that is fairly minor in the greater scheme of things. Traveling next week but hope to get back in a normal routine soon. Miss you guys.

 

Kim. So sorry for all the troubles. The offer for a hug or two and a bottle of wine (or two) is open! The hip taking away the NYC race is an additional slap in the face. I call no fair! Hope your friends are winning their battle. I'll send a truck load of Ghoulie ju-ju yours and their way!

Hi guys. 

 

Kim--I'm so sorry about your friends, and about the situation at work. (((hugs))). Feel free to fly me out so I can offer my support while we hang out and drink wine with Robin. And we really should get Tom out there to help with the pain in your azz. And Dr Melindy, and of course Nealsy-poo. And of course that means that Ann and Kendra must come supervise. 

 

Dee! Hi!

 

Robin. Wine tasting. And you didn't invite me. Sheesh.

 

Ann-I hope the leg numbness is better today. And every day, starting now. 

 

Melissa. How big is your suitcase? I've gained a little weight and want to make sure I still fit. I'll pay for the overized baggage fee.

I guess I owe you guys an update on what's going on with my son. He has ADHD. This much we have known for a while. In hindsight, since he could wiggle, we have known it. LOL. He had a very rough year last year at school. He had this high level of frustration, he was acting out at recess, he wasn't getting along with the other kids very well. He even had a few too many run-ins with the teacher where he would be sent to the office so the teacher could have a break from him. If he hadn't been in a gifted and talented magnet class, I would have asked to have him moved to another teacher's class. The end result of all the struggle he faced was that his self esteem plummeted, and we sought out thorough psychological and developmental testing. The results are in, and he has ADHD, as well as a coordination disorder and mild questionable depression. For him it manifests as fine motor coordination issues, most noticeable when he is trying to write. He has a really hard time getting information from his brain to the outside world. Thus the frustration. There is a huge disparity between his IQ and his ability to filter the information, then physically get the information to the outside world. I am now working on accomodations in the classroom but I have hit a road block until the school district gets their occupational therapist in to evaluate him in the classroom and make specific recommendations. Which will probably be another month or so. It's hit me harder than I thought it would. We were able to completely rule out any Autism Spectrum Disorder, so I know I should be relieved, but I am still trying to sort out what this diagnosis means for him beyond elementary school. For example, my husband really wants him to play football. And he has always enjoyed football. But he can't really process what's going on around him and act on it fast enough. I worry that he'll get hurt. But try to convince the two of them. :-/

Hey Amy. Wow. Those kinds of afflictions are so difficlult. They are in that no mans area between a definite diagnosis and a definite treatment. Just my un solicited two cents worth. Go ahead, let him play football. Maybe he will find a groove there. If not, just bet there to help him understand that it isn't a problem to not excel at everything, there are lots of other things he can excel at. My kid was somewhat the same, but opposite. He didn't react fast enough and over thought. Turns out rock climbing is his forte. Track and field can be good too. Lots of focus needed and not lots of things going on.

Sending Ju ju your way, too!

look what the person who is terrified of heights is going to (attempt) to do tomorrow.

You will have a blast.  Hubby is afraid of heights and he did this in Mexico with us.  We had so much fun.  He just focused on not looking down.
