Here we go again!
at a leading university here. Our family participated about five years ago, so this is a follow up. I don't remember how many years this study entails. They are doing me and difficult child 2 tomorrow, then next week husband and difficult child 2 go in (although I'll have to tag along since husband doesn't remember medical history very well at all). There's a bunch of questionnaires we fill out, there's an interview, an EEG for the difficult child's, as well as a blood draw for all of us. easy child doesn't have to participate since she never had an ADHD diagnosis. I'm only in it because of my genetic contribution to the picture Same for husband, although he gets the EEG since he was told he had ADHD a while back (although I think he's a bit more complicated than that...).
Anywho, the kids are excited because we get paid $30 each for participating. And I'm happy to be helping a large research study.
Downside is that we have to get to this place (which is 50 miles away) by 8:30am through rush-hour traffic in L.A. NOT looking forward to dragging difficult child 2... a.k.a. Rip van Winkle out of bed at that hour. I'll be lucky to get his comatose body out the front door!
I better get the coffee pot programmed for the morning!
