Jack wrote in about supplementing his doctor's pain management regimen with other techniques.
Pending approval from his doctor, I talked about acupuncture, therapeutic massage, chiropractic, and radio frequency ablation which is a minimally invasive procedure. Talk with your doctor about it.
As well, I addressed the value of Iyengar yoga which focuses on spinal alignment.

Here are links to the blog posts that I talked about in terms of understanding how your child "got like this", how to talk with your kids (words count) and allowance (it's a salary!)

A Dad (caps intended) wrote in about having some challenges with keeping his 3 young sons "engaged" while holding family meetings. The family is in the early stages of learning how to do this. Parents think it will be invaluable in wrangling the crew! I do, too!
The boys are healthy, curious, and "busy". I recommended using a "talking stick" like the one featured above.
Talking sticks were used in tribal council meetings, originally, by five tribes in upstate New York. The person holding the stick speaks and everyone listens attentively.
The one above is the one my family used. I had it refurbished by a Cherokee artist. She used a photo of the one we had growing up and replaced the worn "bits".
I recommended that the Dad and his boys use a dowel, strips of leather, a crystal and some beads to make their own. More meaningful that way.
As for the boys who are listening and not speaking, I suggested that they get some Bison Beanie Babies like Roan, shown above. Having a "Roan in the hand" will give them a way to release their energy.
I have several Roans and this one sits on my desk and observes me as I work. Sometimes he sits on my shoulder if my husband comes in and puts him on my shoulder or head...we're just goofy like that.

I mentioned how helpful it can be to wear blue-tinted lenses if you're working on a computer screen extensively.
I also mentioned that the NYC-based eyeglass company, Warby Parker, offers nearly all of their glasses with blue-tinted lenses.
