Today Brendan came in with his father for a lymphatic and ghHW session. Both axilla's (underarms) were blocked; as well as the left clavicle node(s). These are two of the major lymphatic drainage areas. Began by lymphing his legs, abdomen, arms and then neck and head. Once we got onto the underarms and head he began laughing. This happens quite often when the lymphatic system starts draining.
The ghHW protocol included lymph and relaxation with existing remedies. A new remedy was tried on the settings of brain. Linda will update on the homeopathic side.
Brendan stayed about an hour and a half and left in a happy mood. A lot of toxins and fluids drained from his neck, face and skull. He feels better - and we will see him tomorrow for his regular appointment.
This is Brendan's story. Participating in this blog are his parents, his Cranial Sacral Therapist, his Homeopath and Brendan.

Thoughts on rash
Sorry to see Brendan is going through this. Just some thoughts being discussed are the detox. Following Brendan's birth their were difficulties and he spent quite some time in the hospital being treated. Recently we began a detox of the various anesthesias given to him.
In conjunction with ghHW the detox is happening much quicker than normally. Could this be a result of the body trying to flush out so much toxins in such a short period. We are going to do a complete lymph session on Brendan this Thursday - to address the rash; as well as the remedy.
Lymphatic work is wonderful as it opens the major drainage areas of which there are four. One of these is the underarms (or axilla's) - which is where Brendan's rash primiarly is. Could his lymph be backing up and unable to push the amount of toxins releasing? If so, we will be able to tell very quickly as lymphatic work changes the surrounding area immediately (you can actually watch tissue/skin change colors as you are performing the work).
Most importantly is getting Brendan feeling better quickly. Will keep you posted.

Spoke with Dermatologist. She said if the area I am applying the ointment has no rash, then it is not the ointment and something else. So, maybe something he ate? Detox???
He woke up with swollen eyes and a puffy face. Of course he is in an irritable state. Slammed the keyboard and keys went flying everywhere. Gonna be a long, long day.

Poor Brendan. Not a good day at all. He had a bad day at school, stomping, yelling, and his face was itchy. I asked him if he needed Benadryl when I picked him up from school and he said, 'yes'. He's been fussy, headbutting me and hit me a couple of times today. His face looks swollen from scratching it so much.
My guess is it could be the topical antibiotic ointment that we have to apply to his underarm twice a day to keep the sores from getting worse. We've tried natural stuff first, but none of them made it go away completely. A slight possibility of using the antibiotic was a possible rash. The chances were slim but his body is so sensitive. It could be something else, but for now, I am stopping the ointment, still giving him Benadryl but have also started him on an homeopathic remedy for the rash. I hope he gets better.
Although his behavior is reminiscent of months ago, I think it is because of his rash. Who wouldn't be cranky!

Brendan woke up in a better mood this morning. We went on a long hike. But throughout the day he has scratched his face, has been irritable and louder than usual (lots of screaming). He is not screaming in pain, just screaming!
I will do my best to work on head again tonight to see if it helps.

CST Session 11/21/11
Night session. Upon arrival Brendan was watching t.v.; but immediately got up and prepared for going upstairs. Once settled work began on his left leg - he did very well. While his mom worked his right leg I started on his chest and throat area. He liked it alot - lots of heat.
From there we went to his head. His head really needed to be released - especially the left side (parietal, temporal, sphenoid and occipital). We sang while we worked on this. Brendan was exceptional - allowing a lot of heat - and some big shifts to occur.
He has come to the point he know what needs to be done. He can point and tell you exactly what bothers him. We take all our cues from him. It is time we started to do extensive mouth work. We will begin slowly and see how much he can handle as it will effect his entire system (from head to toe).
He wants to talk - he is saying more and more sounds. There is a new technique suggested and founded by our homeopath regarding the laser and neurofeedback. I asked Brendan if he wanted to try this and for the first time in a long time he did not answer. We will wait until his next office appointment to see what he says. We will explain more on this as we do it.
He also wants the laser work done at home (we usually only do this in the office). Going forward we will be doing at the night visits as well. His mom can do that while I will concentrate on his mouth.
When I left he had gotten up to go to the bathroom - which is pretty common during a night session. He usually gets up one time and will then complete his session. I left before he came out of the bathroom - will have to make sure in the future to stay until he gets out so we can evaluate how he is prior to leaving.
Wished him and his family a happy holiday! Am looking forward to see how he did through the holiday.
Blessings and great harvests to all!!

Thanksgiving was great this year! We were able to visit my parents for three hours!!! Brendan usually only lasts about one hour, so it doesn't give us much time to visit. He was good the whole time.
On Saturday, we were watching movies and when I picked the wrong one, he said "the other one". It came out mumbled, but enough so I got the jest of it. Then later that night when I was tickling him, and stopped, he said, "Do again".
On Friday and Saturday, he has become more agitated, mad, etc.... He was scratching his face on both sides. I worked on his head last night. This morning he was in a somewhat better mood.
