WOW!! What a fantastic day!!! Brendan felt so good after his CST/Homepathic session today AND HE STAYED HAPPY ALL DAY/EVENING!!!!!!!! Whoo Hoo!!!!!! Okay, let me give you a recap of the day. Sorry, I just couldn't hold back giving you the good news up front! : )
Last night he didn't fall asleep until 3:30am. (Even though he had a late nap, he usually falls asleep by midnight). Then he woke up at 7:15am. At least he woke up happy. He did get mad when he checked the mailbox because it was empty. But the rest of the morning he was okay, but sleepy.
As you have read by the previous blog updates, he had a great session. After we left, I was looking in my rearview mirror and could see him grinning from ear to ear. This continued even after we got ice cream.
He wasn't agitated at all the rest of the day. He didn't even headbutt me. He was looking really tired around 4pm. So I tried to get him down for a nap, but no go. A couple of times I thought he fell asleep, but he was just very, very relaxed. So, we continued on with our day. Then when I tried to cut his hair (which lately he has been tolerating - but he doesn't enjoy it), he was laughing so hard I couldn't get him to stay still.
As I was getting him ready for bed, he asked me to work on his head. But as I did, he started giggling again. Then he wanted me to work on his belly. Then I felt a need to put my left hand under his back between the shoulder blades and he grabbed my right hand and put it on his chest. There wasn't as much pulsing, but alot of heat was released. He fell asleep this way.
I haven't seen him this happy in a long time. I could tell he felt good! Seeing him happy is a gift I treasure because I know all to well how quickly it can be taken away at any moment, and how bad things can get. I'm so glad he gets these moments of relief and pray that he will have more days like this. For only being 11 years old, to me, he has endured a lifetime of struggle, ailment, heartache, and challenges then some people experience in their lifetime. He deserves to feel good and be happy!!! : )
Thank you Kathleen, Linda and Tim!!!
