My families adventure on the road to oz via Germany

Turning a corner perhaps?

Thank you to all who gave suggestions over ways to help J.

Yesterday we started by switching his normal milk on his cereal to Alpro soya milk. What a difference, he was much calmer and almost a different little boy. For the first time in ages we had a good laugh together, as he was back to his charming self again. It was short lived though V gave him some cheesy puffs to eat while they were out at the shops. Wont be doing that again.

Im trying my hardest to get an apt with the paeds people so we can have tests on food intolerence.

Im almost finished my assignment which is due in on Friday, (having a mental block so took a break)The Insurance company look as though they will pay for the damage to the cars. So we are going back to the UK as planned. Quite realived about that. I need a break from Paderborn.

To cheer my self up im finally getting my hair done, the works, cut, colour and new style.

My weight is still coming down , slowly but im happy. Im still getting tired though so not too sure how effective the level of thyroxine im on.

All the family have now been told that we have applied to the oz army. Not too sure how they will react if we get the go ahead. As although they have been supportive so far , i still think they dont think we will get in or go to the other side of the world.

It seems that every other asdvert on TV is about oz right now. I doubt we will have saved enough money up for the trip in Octber which i really wanted to do. But we will just have to wait and see.

WEll back to the assignment as my brain is starting to kick in again

Don't know if it's relevant but a lad I knew in the UK diagnosed ADHD and on Ritalin but they later found out, if he ate bog standard apples he would go off the planet whether he'd taken his Ritalin or not. He's happily banned from apples now. Damn scarey how the most apparently harmless food can mess up a person.

Wow!

You sound much happier, that's a great find with your son and I' m so pleased the insurance company is going to pay out! Good on you for the haircut!

So glad to hear that a simple dietary change was positive for your son. A little hope is a wonderful thing. Great about the insurance paying for the damage. Enjoy your pending trip.
