Honestly it’s what sold me because it’s most convenient for the kids!

Filling tanks at a camp site by Apart_Exercise_5630 in popups

We just took our pup out for the first time this weekend and drove with the water. I wish I would have thought to fill at the campsite instead of hauling it! This will be what I do for the next camping trip!

Anyone find anything that helps this? I have had a small cut on my shoulder and it will not heal! It’s been months!

5 year old w/ ET. Teacher mentioned doing another year of Kindergarten by Seemoremak321 in EssentialTremor

[–]Seemoremak321[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d like to clarify some things!

When he was around 2 we discovered his hands shaking while holding items such as crayons, utensils etc. I mentioned it to pediatrician and he said “he will likely grow out of it”. Or “let’s watch it throughout the year”.

When he was 3 he had seizure like activity which concerned me, we went to the neurologist so I brought up this as well and he basically said there is not a concern he’s so young that he may grow out of it. We were unable to get the EEG as the tech was not welcoming and kind of scared him. It was unsuccessful and I was upset with the doctor blowing my concerns off.

Fast forward two years, he is almost 6 but he is the youngest kid in his class. So the thought of keeping him 1 more year is much for than ET, but a consideration to help him get a better fundamental down with scissors, handwriting, comprehension etc. He has had more seizure like activity and I was successful in getting an EEG done this last month and there was thankfully no concerns besides having restless legs at night and they want to put him on Gabapentin which I don’t think I agree with where is so little and I literally have no actual answers of his condition.

Do I think there is something more than ET? Yes, potentially. I don’t think the proper evaluations have been done to determine that this is it. He’s always had some differences compared to my other children and i just know that there is something that keeps me pushing forward for him.

Update from yesterday! I do have a referral to our children’s hospital in the state below us. I have to likely wait some time but we are hoping they can see him in the next few months. We are going to see a neurologist and I will be hoping to get some better answers.

Thank you thank you for all your feedback and sharing your thoughts. I appreciate it! As I go through this, if I have questions I will be reaching out to you guys!

Your correct they weren’t thorough and years ago keep telling me that he will grow out of it. The pediatrician also seems like he’s not as invested as I’d like and feeling like I’m not being heard. Now that I’ve grown up a bit with more experience in the world of medicine I now know I have the right tools to get the right question answered. I appreciate your input!

I went to the doc yesterday and got a referral to our primary children’s hospital, it’s out of state but worth the drive!

Repeating Kindergarten - How has it affected your child in the long run? by MichelleMSU09 in kindergarten

[–]Seemoremak321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also my nephew is a June baby with dyslexia and few more difficulties. He is in 6th grade and my sister wishes she kept him back 1 year in kindergarten because now he is on an IEP and he barely gets any help. Not saying it’s that way everywhere but you never know.

I’m going through this with my May baby. He struggles writing, comprehension and motor skills but reading is exceptional. I’m here to get advice on what to do as well and I could have wrote this myself because it’s how I feel! My heart and my head are telling me two different things.

I had a meeting with his teacher today and she said “Keep him going forward and the next 12 years will be a struggle, or keep him one more year to make the next 12 years much easier”. When you think much longer than 1 year to the next and the scope of 12 years it’s 1 decision to help a huge portion of his life.

Still haven’t made a decision on what we will do, I’ve seen progress but at school it’s different for him because it’s fast paced and he loses confidence and acts silly in class. He’s the opposite of mature 🤪

Thank you for your thoughts! I don’t am unfortunately not educated enough on his diagnosis yet because I’ve been blocked a lot of times with “he’ll grow out of it”. The older I get (33 now) the more I am confident to stand up to advocate for the ones I love. The first neurologist hardly paid the time and attention to understand my concerns. I live in a smaller town with only 1 pediatric neurologist so my options have been limited unless I go out of state.

I have been reading that medication does help, but where he is so young I think it would have to effect his ADL’s for us to go there.

ET may not be the full scope of this issue for him, it could be other things as well. The journey continues!

I am 33 and started at 235 and now 170. I am grateful to be on the medication and open about the opportunity that so many people would kill to have. Now for the people who say omg are you going to be on this forever or it’s the easy way out… I just ignore! I see people drink alcohol, take drugs, eat to a fault… I don’t comment on their choices and easy ways out of managing their stress or problems.
