Behavioral Issues and Medications Just Don’t Work For Her

I’ve been battling these issues with my little butterfly’s behavior since June of 2009. It started with hand biting. Then it progressed to hair pulling, head banging, and knee biting.  She was once enrolled in a day behavior program at KKI twice a week for five months; to no avail! She was placed on several different medications by her behavioral psychiatrist at KKI over the past year; to no avail! I purchased arm and leg immobilizers to prevent her from self inflecting injuries which have limited her ability to be independent and movable!  After numerous visits to different specialist no one can give me a reason why she is experiencing such great distress. I believe it’s because of her lack of ability to communicate with others her wants, needs, and dislikes……….. by the way she is deaf and has a vision impairment! I’m still trusting in the Lord to heal her and give her the ability to communicate with others in a positive manner by using ASL (sign language).
