Great Resource and Thank You

I would like to thank all of you who responded to my question about stopping Lamitical. All of your advice is very good and I appreciate your responses. I feel quite lost trying to keep up with my son's conditions, it is so easy to aggravate him that as a supporter/caregiver it is very important I be there for him in a way that is truly helpful. I...
