I think it's Colosal. The doctors switched him to something stronger. I'll tell Ben about this comment and maybe ask the doctors if he should switch. It's nice to hear that it's possible to get through this!Lauren Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07329485509526075515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-81518202055326381292007-10-30T08:10:00.000-07:002007-10-30T08:10:00.000-07:00Found your blog as I was searching for other RKB p...Found your blog as I was searching for other RKB practitioners and read this particular entry and thought that I would share what my sister-in-law was able to do with the same condition. I have copied and pasted some of her response to me regarding the treatment that is working with her. She has had the condition for 17 years with the last two symptom free.<BR/> <BR/>prednisone and asacol for 6 months, and gradually weaned off the steroids and she has been on the asacol for two years and been symptom free. Worth a look.<BR/><BR/>Best Regards,Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-13606844889843181602007-10-24T20:49:00.000-07:002007-10-24T20:49:00.000-07:00Darn!Feel better soon!Darn!<BR/><BR/>Feel better soon!Franz Snidemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07214347683076253495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-3425275463064641112007-10-22T16:49:00.000-07:002007-10-22T16:49:00.000-07:00Nap when she does!

My kids don't nap anymore, so I'm screwed - and the younger two have yet to sleep through the night (night terrors).<BR/><BR/>I am a highly evolved being that no longer requires sleep. That's what I keep telling myself, anyway!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11764899704457653919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-67207897620935284832007-10-22T10:15:00.000-07:002007-10-22T10:15:00.000-07:00I'm a little late commenting here but just wanted ...I'm a little late commenting here but just wanted to say "hang in there" Babies schedules change they go through growth spurts here and there.

I have the short part down, but usually I like to keep them very intense. I definitely need to lighten it up if I am not sleeping. <BR/>Good luck on getting your sleep too!Lauren Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07329485509526075515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-87558072219237576932007-10-16T08:45:00.000-07:002007-10-16T08:45:00.000-07:00Howie,I can't imagine watching my child go through...Howie,<BR/><BR/>I can't imagine watching my child go through what you do. You are so strong with the situation you have been dealt. Thank you for your wishes. You are absolutely right how our physical workouts have made us that much stronger to deal with everything. I have had no choice but to be strong. My mental state is like steel now!!! 8-)Lauren Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07329485509526075515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-4178066861720350632007-10-16T05:41:00.000-07:002007-10-16T05:41:00.000-07:00Hang in there Lauren... things will get better.Hang in there Lauren... things will get better.fawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10791959590164539258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-75192659600772725872007-10-15T12:56:00.000-07:002007-10-15T12:56:00.000-07:00My boy is 3 months old.

I know that's hard, but when you're laying out the workouts make them a little easier, and shorter, then you normally would and stop when you're done. I like to train dialy but I've been taking days off too. <BR/><BR/>You have a solid enough, very solid, foundation to work off. Just maintain. <BR/><BR/>Best of luck.Bill Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00516370075094663987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-9222640422859496192007-10-15T08:24:00.000-07:002007-10-15T08:24:00.000-07:00Hi Lauren, so sorry to hear how things got turned ...Hi Lauren, so sorry to hear how things got turned upside down on you guys this week. Believe me, I know what it's like. My little guy suffers from epilepsy and every few weeks it seems we go through a rough patch and every couple of months we're holed up in the hospital for a 5-day stay. These are the times where all the past training comes in. It only have we made our bodies stronger to withstand what we normally wouldn't have to, but it has also made us mentally strong, to be able to withstand the emotional and mental hurdles we face. Stay strong and be sure to continue to take care of yourself as well as everyone else. At times it's not easy, but unfortunately, it's part of life. Best wishes to you all.
