Well we have had an up and down week-end with Monkey B. They had been off since Friday so I booked their well kid check-ups. Fun times. All are growing good though. Dh met us and drove back home. I hate, hate, hate driving downtown.
Tried Monkey B on his full dose of meds this morning. I hate myself a little each time I give it to him. Kinda like maybe I am not doing everything I can for him. Some say to change the diet of an ADHD kid. Well, would love to do that, but it is hard when he only eats like 5 things besides fruit. He eats no meat whatsoever, no cheese and no veg. This is something I am going to bring up again at our next ped appointment.
I have been stressed all week. And feeling like a shitty parent. So I have been eating lots of healthy food. Like Doritos and peanut M&M's. Yeah. Even skipped weigh-in this week. I suck.

Aww I wish I could give you a real hug. That sounds SOOO tough :-(
I'm guessing the diet changes that have been recommended are to take out the gluten ... which is what we did for John with great success! He still has more than his fair share of issues, but isn't nearly as manic about some of them as he was. It can actually be a lot easier to pull off than I originally thought it would be. If you ever have any questions or anything about it just give me a hollar. I am NOT saying that I think you should do it instead of what you're doing ... just offering my ear since it's one of the few things I can claim to know something about ;)
