The 'experiment' is concluded I think ... the results are positive. Splitting the dose of Risperdal is good. .... and failure of dosage produced an expected result. We forgot a dose in the evening and the lack of Risperdal in the next 24 hours was obvious!
Today Kaylia has been with me all afternoon while Naomi attended a seminar on insomnia in children ... very appropriate eh? (One of the things she found was that we actually "have it pretty good" .... other parents fare worse than us!). In the late afternoon Kaylia had an anxiety attack ... not sure why ... maybe she was hungry .... maybe the fact that mummy wasn't here was the trigger. It's hard to know. She settled again after an hour and a half.
The office can be a very social place for me .... I frequently find myself sharing experiences with other parents ... it's good to see how some parents are seeing clear benefits from their ABA program .... and quite sad to see how some parents haven't accepted that the ABA cannot work if they don't personally get involved.
