who are only reading part of my blogs and then commenting – please read the site entirely before you make your own comments !! Once again to clarify for those of you who aren’t able to read …

GD has controlled my daughter’s life from the time she was 11 months old!! yes, that’s right 11mos. So, in the beginning when GD was at it’s worst she didn’t get to ENJOY all the things that little kids SHOULD be enjoying like EATING for instance – she skipped meals to GD, skipped playtime to GD and so on. It’s not as if she would GD for a short amount of time and then go onto something else. She would GD for HOURS and HOURS without stopping. So YES YES YES I’m overwhelmed with enthusiasm that the GD has calmed down to the point where it’s only when she has a BM or is VERY tired. Because now I’m able to watch her play with her friends and family, laugh, eat, travel, sleep and so on …. It’s a beautiful thing!!!!

As in previous posts it’s not the GD that bothered me. Yes, I understand it’s normal. What I feel ( and remember these are only MY opinions here and I keep saying that) was not normal about her case was the duration of GD throughout the day and the severe impact it had on her daily life!!! NO! As a parent to me that was not O.K. or normal !!!!  So, understandably I’m happy that it’s calmed.

This has been the best summer we’ve had in three and a half years. She is able to enjoy ALL that summer has to offer and when she feels the need to GD she’s able to put herself in her bed and do so. She is not punished for it, thought less of or made to think that this is not normal and something she should be ashamed of. Instead she is showered with love EVERY day and made to feel like the princess she is and will always be !!!

And please remember that this is a personal blog site. I’m putting myself out there so that others on the edge feeling all alone in this can know that they’re not. There’s strength in numbers and with that comes comfort and possibly some solutions!! I have only given my experience’s and my thoughts if you don’t like them or agree with them why waste my time and yours by making pointless comments. My time is reserved for those of you who need someone to talk to and those who take this site seriously.  For those people (hundreds now and 60 of which I still need to get in touch with)  I WILL write you all individually!!! Sorry life has gotten crazy busy but I will connect wit you. And please continue to write your comments I appreciate them very much !!!!
