It is so stressful on everyone. My heart goes out to you. We eventually got a new psychiatrist and new medication protocol and a job that is a good fit for her, and she is doing very well now (age 33).

After weeks of her vomiting every day most of the times more then once, seeing doctors and missing school we figured out it was something going on at school. Once it was addressed her vomiting stopped (for the most part) we have had some set backs but nothing like before.<br />Its hard when they cant communicate what is causing the problem, and schools never want to admit it could be something happening there. <br />You will make it, he will make it.

At least we don't have the throw up. (Yet). Hang in there. Sending love. And white chocolate peppermint pretzel chips.

Another tried-and-true favorite that's back for him this month: Fireman Sam (a Welsh claymation series with a super catchy theme song. We live near Philly.
