hi baby egg ( what a cute name )and her mum Hope you find the help you need on here i know i do when i feel i ave no wher else to turn to Karen x

hey ravenfire, nice to meet you Karen x

lol and this is why i don't taste all the things i give my kids just as well dan's comes in capsuls cos if it wsa a liquid i would have no chance of him taking it

Hi all Daniel has now been taking eye q for about 4 weeks now hes on the whole very good at taking the tablets when he has to. I can say that for Daniel they have made a diffrence hes more calm and controiled when hes taken them and taken them on time. He even sat at the dining table and did his homework yesterday morning when i was in bed!! a thing never heard of before. So al i can say is that for Daniel they have worked you can tell if hes missed a day as his is back to his old self, bouncing around the room picking on the girls and so on................ So thanks mum and dad for buying them for him love Kaz xx

then the answer would be the same YES as right now anything that would make his life easier would be good

Hi, if that had been the question that Daniel had asked my then the reply would have been YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! no question about it anything that would make Daniels life easier then i would have no resevation about it at all As long as in the end he was still the Daniel i love Karen xx

Just had to tell you all just how proud i am of Daniel tonight............. after nearly no sleep last night, as it was his first day back after being ill on friday........ and the fact that he was so scared of the BCG skin test he was going to have today i really did not think he would go into school when i drove him there this morning, all he could say was mum stay by the phone because if i don't like it i am calling you and you better come get me. So i stayed in today and waiting for the phone to ring and it never happened, picked Daniel up from school this afternoon and asked him how it went his reply was " It was EASYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY mum" two weeks of worry untold sleepless night but he got though it........ just got to do it all over again for the real BCG next week if he need it. Thats my boy

Hi simon Boots had it in liquid form when i got the capsuls for daniel Karen x

HI nelli I have just looked at that site you recomended and i am lost for words ( in a good way) talk about making you feel humble and blessed at the same time. The don't mourn for me was one of the most powerful things i have read and it made me feel even happier that i had told Daniel "no" when he asked me that question. Like most others who have to deal with an apsergers child/adult every day, i do get tired and run down, i do feel and say "way me" and at times i do take it out on Daniel. I know this is not right and this is not how it should be, but at times it is hard not to as you get so frustrated. If this site did anything it makes you sit back and think not "why me" but "what can i do to help him get though this" it makes you think that the things that we all take for granted and find normal he doesn't, he does not see what he does as wrong but the way we do things as wrong. Do i mourn for the son i should have had, i don't know as i never had him to mourn for. But i do know that for each time i sit and think "why me" there is loads more times when i sit and thank god for giving me Daniel, the child that can make me smile cry and want to scream out loud Daniel knows i write on here and i have even shown him most of the things i have posted and the replys we have had, after reading some of these he said " Mum i know what i am going to do when i am older. I am going to help children cope with aspergers" in hindsight it might be better if Daniel teacher parents and carers with how to cope with aspergers! love karen x

sorry about the spelling its bad enough on a good day but when i am tired my 8 year old spells better tham me

hi nelli I could not se the site that you menat could you please send it again many thanks Karen xx

Hi Nelli Thank you for the reply it made both me and Dans smile as i had showen him what I had written it, lets hope that some day he will feel the way your husban feels now. I had also shown my 11 year old daughter it as well and asked her the question dans had asked me and her reply was..................... " Mum we could not do that to Dans as then he would just be a normal boring person and wheres the fun in that!" I know its hard on the girls at times but it is nice to know that they love there brother for who his is not what his is

Hi all that was a question my son asked me last night................. if someone out there found a pill that once would make him not have aspergers would i let him have it? What a hard question to answer and in 5 second of thinking time as well.......... Daniel need to know right away. I said no i would not let him have it (selfish maybe) and my reasons why, where If i let im take this pill he would no longer be my Daniel, as it would take away all the trait and quirks that he has because of aspergers the things that make me wanna kill him and the things that make me love him so much i am sure my heart will burst!!! I am not sure if this is the right answer or not or even if there is a right answer Daniel said if he could he would as he hates not understanding when people tease and call him names for a joke and other things that he knows he does differntly from other children It was a question thats had me pondering since he asked me just wondering what others might think........ as i hate pondering things like this alone

Hi all, just a quck question, has anyone heard or even tryed the herbal tablets called "eye q " its a herbal tablet with a marine fish oil and virgin evening primrose oils and is ment to be helpful with children with low consintraton and other problems, my mum has heard loads about it and even knows a few people who have used it on there children ( none with aspergers) and thought it might be a good idea to try it on Daniel. It is quiet expensive �7.99 for 60 thats ten days worth (as they have to take 6 a day for the first month)...... and as a single parent with a ex husband who is not very supportive in things like this i was just wondering if they where worth it any thought would be great thanks Karen xx
