Simon "Green Day" Wood

Simon has had 13 green days in a row - every day since we started him on Concerta. His teacher, his stepdad, and I all agree that he's a totally different kid...in a good way. A very good way. It's not that he's not him anymore, it's more like the real him has a chance to shine through. Like a cloud of crazy bees has stopped buzzing around in his head and he can just relax and be Simon. Example: I don't think he's fallen off his chair at dinnertime once in the last two weeks, which is a small but wonderful thing. He's so proud of himself, and I can finally feel good about it because I finally told his dad about it this week. Whew. So, to anyone out there who has a child who has the symptoms of ADD but might be reluctant to admit it,  go NOW and talk to your doctor. There are so many treatment options available, and so many resources out there...you can and will find something that makes a big difference for your child.
