janet mcherry,
ambar is 9.its not that ambar is very hyper all the time(she’s really a good little girl) she just can’t seem to stay focus in school.everything distracts her.belive me i have tried everything for the past 2 years(im not a mother that just can’t handle her child and is using this as a crutch). i have mixed motions about putting her on meds,but after a parent teacher meeting on thursday,it kinda like slaped me in the face that she needs them.she is about to fail 3rd grade.she was already put in a pre-first program years ago because she is a summer baby and they said that she was’nt ready for first grade,so she is already a year behind.don’t get me wrong ,she is a very bright girl(she is awsome in math),she just dose rally bad when there is alot of kids in the room and other things going on.
she is getting blood test done tommrow to rule out other things that might give off the same effects that adhd does,and a hearing test.we want to ease our minds on them first and then take it from there.im very "anal" when its comes to her health.my first daughter also had cah and died of adrenal destress 10 years ago at the age of 2. but the doctor and i really think that she has adhd.
i’lll keep you posted on how she is doing....thank you for your help!!!
