Summer Recap ll

Ve wet her bed last night, and then when I asked her if she was dry or wet, she said dry...so she chose to lie again..this is one of the areas she impulsively lies before she thinks about the answer. Eventually she realizes the truth is best, but the lie is chosen first. BTW, the bed wetting is just one area she chooses to do this. So we are going to keep plugging away, and now I purchased a clock radio alarm to help wake her at 2:00am. I am doing this upon the doctors suggestion..hopefully it will work.

I had forgotten to speak about the Giarrdia in the last post. Apparently, according to the Infectious Disease Specialist, the tests taken today for Giarrdia are testing for the antigen that the body produces once it has been infected with the Giarrdia organism..it in fact does NOT test for the Giarrdia organism. So after Ve's first treatment for it, she was actually negative, but the test came back positive because her body still contains the antigens as a reaction to being once infected with the parasite...interesting stuff, so the good news is that Ve is Giarrdia free..so we have made good progress!! Someday soon I will give a more positive post about her adjustment into our family. There has been many wonderful things happening too...
