Wow Wendy how challenging that must be for you! I've been pretty lucky that way. My oldest has ADD but that's about it. It's possible my youngest does too, but I haven't had him tested yet.

I've never her of TBI or LBPI. What are they exactly?

I have a friend whose son has cerebral palsy, autism, epilepsy, reflux, can't talk, and is in nappies, (12 this nov) and I feel for her, as the day to day life is hectic in the extreme, he's lucky to sleep 5 hours a night and only wants mum. Tall, skinny and as strong as an ox. Lucky the elder daughter takes it in her stride.

I try take my hat off to anyone who has 1 special needs child let alone more.

WGLTK, could you explain a little more ?

whoa!you really have a very challenging job...but i somewhat know how you feel, because in two years time, I'll also be having my own set of special kids to handle. well, i wish you good luck on handling your kids, be string and creative. and most importantly, do not treat them as if they are different form others, make them feel that they do belong. Treat them as your own
