Open Meniere's Disease

i wa diagnosed with meneires 4 yrs ago. It has led me on a rollercoaster ride, merry go round chase to try to find a cure. i REALIZE that the disease is not curable but i so wish it were. i am on serc 24 daily 2x a day. i am also taking a vallium when i have a full blown attack. the attacks seem to be getting worse and i can no longer work for anyone but myself and my husband.

Attachment parenting aides in raising well adjusted children who are not afraid of the world. They are often the ones more willing to take chances or go after what they want when they are older without fear.

Patience goes along way when raising a child. The more a parent can show a child patience the better they will interact with others as they grow. These children are less apt to use violence to settle their issues.
