New Day, New Thoughts!
I took my middle daughter(the one with ADHD), to the Doctor today and the meds they want to put her on are recalled. I had no clue. I took them to the Pharmacy to get them filled and my Pharmacist was like," Do you know that this medication has been recalled?" Of course I said no. So they can't fill it to say the least. What I feel like might be best for Savannah, is for me to take her out after Christmas break, continue to send my other 2 for the rest of the year, and just use the last semester of school to take Savannah off her meds and let her try to learn how to control herself on her own and for us to focus on her studies ourselves. We can also use this time to grow closer to each other, as our relationship is quite strained right now, beause of her actions. When she is on her meds, she is very calm, but very snappy and whiney. Almost mean at times. Her Doctor was like," Oh well, thats a side effect of the meds and you are going to have to take the good with the bad." Savannah has a great personalitywhen she is off the meds. She is just very Baby-ish. She is loving and kind though when she is off her meds. She is just extra hyper and does not obey me for the most part I have heard about certain foods being the culprit to ADHD and maybe I will look into one of those theories and try to find a diet that helps prevent and control some of the symptoms. I am excited at the thought of keeping her home! I look forward to being there when the light comes on and she finally says," oh yeah , I get it!" Anyways, I have also decided that for her this semester we will be using Alpha Omega Lifepacs. They are the most reasonable by far price wise and it is very do-able to get them and finish all of them by the end of June or July. Well I'll write again later! Kepp us in your prayers and if anyone has any links or ideas about the ADHD diet send me a message or email me at cameronandmaudie@bellsouth.net .
