[QUOTE="Amity, post: 719010, member: 22179"] I don't believe we are dealing with PWS. Goodness that looked and sounded really scary Poor Babies. I have been doing a higher protein/higher good fat diet for him for about 9 days. It is going well. Yesterday he brought home pockets full of graham crackers from the school cafeteria (unopened) and asked me if they were okay before eating them. It was my biggest clue that he gets it. He was a bit upset and tried to argue/bargain with me and I simple replaced them with an acceptable alternative and he was happy. I tried to explain to the teacher that I am not restricting him from eating if he feels he is hungry instead I am offering fruits, veggies and other healthy options. If I need to supply the class with a fruit bowl I am happy to do so! She isn't super happy with me (oh well sorry, I know it isn't daycare but in truth yeah I expect that kind of care when I let my child leave my side and be some place else/with someone else). Food is the corner stone of our lives. We all eat, albeit not all the same way but we eat. Yesterday I spent the entire day pushing my weight around (seriously this is just emotionally exhausting) for me this was hard. I hate pushy people I believe in treating everyone like they are a customer in front of me, they deserve my good helpful attitude. Until they don't and then I excuse myself from their presence lol. Yesterday I got through the counties special education director and had a one on one with her. She got it, she really really got it. I was shocked! Before I got home I started getting calls about setting up meetings and Invites to PAC meetings (parents of special needs kids) and I guess I said the magic words ( advocate and case manager) because she jumped into action. So thats the school side. Today I am working the medical side and making calls to get a case manage through my insurance company and one through our local mental health authority. I am filling out paperwork for ABA etc. I am also going to be picking up my new lipscence colors because doing something for me is supper important today! I just wana say how great you all are. Thank you for all the words of wisdom and encouragment. I seriously don't know what I would have done without feeling like there are others out there that don't think I'm crazy. :) [/QUOTE]
