Now that I have your attention...;) PWS=Prader-Willi syndrome. (as if there isn't enough syndroms as it is.) Dreemy, this may be better served at the weightloss site here, but I feel it may be ok here in the main forum. (delete if you wish!)

I have been researching this today, and found an intersting site I wanted to share, as my son is not the only one struggling with weight issues. Here is a site with q's and A's on it...

http://www.pwsausa.org/faq.htm

Basic jist is that of obesity (sp) in some people being due to a genetic disorer. However, at other websites on the topic (googled it..lol), there are also other presenting factors. Since I just began reading about it, I wont say much more about PWS.

However, It DOES bother me that a 12 yr olds bullies had been calling him "willie" and such since yule....(and school staff thinking its ok)...Then a couple weeks ago,the syndrom was "sugested as a possablitity although cannot diagnosse..." this from a teacher and school guidance councelor about said boy. Actually the word bully dosnt really fit...tormentors is a better description. Think I shall stop the rant here, though there's tons more.

Yeh, I did do the freezer spell, but if anyone has other spells or thoughts for some I am all ears. I seem to be operating from/with the element of fire though.

Well, I see the sun is setting here in pa, so it is time to go outside (barefoot) and reconnect w/nature gound and balance some.
