Day 7

Day 7

1 Tbsp of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (California Olive Ranch with COOC Seal)
1/2 Tsp of Now Brand Inulin 
1 pill of Now Brand DHA-500 Fish Oil

7:57 AM

Monica is such in a good mood this Monday morning.  And we still have 20 minutes to relax before the bus after breakfast.  I think at this point it is hard to deny the mood as long as she is doing what she wants to do.  But even during the first few days, and the week before the protocol, she was cranky in the morning getting ready for school, and eating.  

Stimming seems the same, but I never saw that as a downfall.  Managing expectations on the protocol for me is key.  I don't want to change who she is.  I want to lower her frustrations.  I want to help her focus.  I want to avoid meltdowns because she is jumping out of her skin with crossed internal wires.  If the protocol continues to show me her joy, that is why we will stay on it, and the only reason.   Sure would I love for those wires to connect and give her speech, of course.  But that is far from being in the top three expectations.
