[QUOTE="zand, post: 688954, member: 85197"] I know I said I was leaving the thread but.... [USER=45094]@izzzi[/USER] Yes akindrat joined this forum for help. That was 2 years ago. He has had lots of good advice and encouragement in that time. Now is the time for him to identify and push through whatever barriers are stopping him. When my youngest son was 4, I took him for his pre-school injections. I let him get through the doctor's tests first and then when we were waiting to see the nurse I explained that he was going to have an injection now so that he was all ready for school and so the nasty bugs wouldn't hurt him. He said "Will it hurt?" And I said "Yes, but not for long". He was fine, did as he was told and didn't even say "ow". I'm sorry I really don't see the problem with finger pricking, I do see a problem with losing a leg though. akindrat is now facing possible bariatric surgery or finger pricking. Which do you think my son would have chosen at 4 years old? Yes, I've got my coat. edit: I realise what I have may seem harsh, but I don't believe the 'there, there, here's a virtual hug to cheer you up' approach will do akindrat18 any good. It's the truth that sets people free. [/QUOTE]
