[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 58619, member: 2211"] Marg, what an awful experience with the meusli - difficult child, we have discovered, has a severe allergy to cherries!! She was covered in massive hives all over her body Wednesday night. I gave her benedryl but in the AM they were back again. Her DR is taking care of it, but how scary. She even wrote us a script for an EPI pen in case difficult child unknowingly comes in contact with cherries. Wow. You were wise to dump that counselor - After the fact, it makes you wonder why you hung in so long, doesn't it? At this point, difficult child knows and understands that in order for her to FEEL better and have a more positive outlook on her life, SHE HAS TO DO THE THERAPY, whether that means just talking, or planning, or putting something into action. You know, it's still new right now, so she is being very cooperative. We shall see. Her mode of operation has always been to be cooperative while she sits in the 'hotseat' and once the heat dies down and our lives get calmer and back to normal...that's when she acts up again. So, although it is tiring to constantly be 'on it', for now that's what we have to do. But it's me, not H, and so I'm exhausted much of the time. I am leaving for the weekend to go spend some time with a girlfriend at her lakehouse (well, lake camper!) and difficult child is going to her dad's till Monday, so perhaps we will both get some much needed R & R. I know I am looking forward to it! Thanks for conversing with me about this Marg - it really helps to talk it out. [/QUOTE]
