[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 355613, member: 1991"] I don't think the radioisotope scan would have been enough to do this sort of damage. They use radioactive Technetium which really does go straight to the bones. Not the brain. More likely, if any damage is responsible, would be the traumatic birth. But even that has me feeling sceptical. Finding a cause won't fix the problem, it only gives you something more specific to be angry about/feel guilty about. We also went through the phase of checking out our boys for Fragile X. It was negative. Before the results came back negative, i was convinced both my boys fit the profile completely. After it came back, and after I'd had time to really think about it, I realised that there was little really, of comparison. We had a wanderer in difficult child 3. We had to instal a solid fence that was also unclimbable. We then had to tie the gates shut with octopus straps. You do what you have to do, find what you can use to thwart them. It feels reactive rather than proactive, but all we can do is the best we can do. You can't do more than that. Marg [/QUOTE]
