I know with Bear his diagnosis is so complicated it is going to make it harder. But with Bear when he started healing I had be careful to still do a lot of reassuring and affection. They let you know if you let up to quickly by regressing a little. I'm so glad your ds is healing.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05811548306583601019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3134242791095743131.post-39276655880571309792008-08-24T21:27:00.000-05:002008-08-24T21:27:00.000-05:00OH, Brenda - ME TOO!!I have been praying specifica...OH, Brenda - ME TOO!!<BR/><BR/>I have been praying specifically this weekend that God will help me to allow the kids to heal ... see it happening and know when it's time to let up and assume the best, instead of looking for the protective behavior in everything.<BR/><BR/>Ds12 IS HEALING! I knew that he had a lot of hope of moving forward more quickly, simply because his experiences were not as long-lasting and harsh as dd8. Yet, I find myself in this balance now - of wanting to allow him those moments, yet no wanting to let up too much and jeopardize the process (because we're just in the beginning glimmers of it). <BR/><BR/>And it's also weird. I buckle down for the rage that I know is coming, and it doesn't. I'm not sure what to do! I know I look like a deer in headlights!<BR/><BR/>Of course, then I worry that when he does have his next rage, I'll be just as freaked out because I'm not expecting it.<BR/><BR/>Ugh. Sorry - I should just put my posts on my own blog instead of hogging your space! ha!Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07276000726366302069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3134242791095743131.post-43627655324602907492008-08-24T20:19:00.000-05:002008-08-24T20:19:00.000-05:00Good idea.

It is a self-protective mode I go into to assume the worst.Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11350536302914589901noreply@blogger.com
