    August 12, 11:49-50 am I bruised while eating and my body stopped (nerve reaction)
    On August 21st at 3:56-57 pm, watching UA-cam while having fun, cold sweats, bruises, and tension lasted for 30-40 seconds. (Nerve reaction)

    Are you gonna do the treatments to keep her small? I hope that's not insensitive but I saw a documentary about parents with severely disabled children suppressing their growth so they're easier to manage. Not starving them but I think it was hormones or suppressing hormones to prevent them getting and longer and stop bone growth.

    • @HopeAndSunshine
      @HopeAndSunshine  2 роки тому +1

      It's actually a side effect of hormones she takes to strengthen her bones. It's definitely controversial, though. But for Raelynn, it's necessary so that her spine remains strong after she had spine surgery

      @HopeAndSunshine  2 роки тому

      We used to have hospital-bed type siderails, but they were very rigid and got in the way. While Raelynn doesn't roll much, there's always a chance that she would fall out of bed during a seizure, especially if she was on her side. So we taped pool noodles on the edges of her mattress to create soft barriers.
