Over the last 6 months or so, we have been in a transition. We have completely removed the pharmaceuticals from our special needs child. she has been drug free for quite some time and we have been working on helping her to adjust to living a normal life. It is quite difficult to help when there isn't a cognitive ability to cope with life, but we are working on it. We have had this child on the high doses of vitamin B, amino acids and omega 3's. These nutritional supplements have helped her maintain a near normal level of mental and emotional responses. We have had her in a special education program with the public school system and this helps her learn new coping skills on a daily basis.
The new challenge is to now start a process of addressing her ADHD. We will begin using a product that will not require much to help her control her impulses. We hope that this will help her to be closer to normal as her other siblings.
I will keep you updated on this process, we hope that she will be able to transition during this change in her routine.

A New Beginning
During this holiday season I took a much needed rest. I enjoyed being with my wife and my children during this hectic season of family and holidays.
I have made new commitments to be a better Dad, Husband and employee. With every commitment, there is the element of time. Time to develop better and more lasting relationships with those who are nearest and dearest.
I would challenge any reader, to make a similar commitment to his family.
