Soupy! I am so sorry! I have a couple of comments for you. First, the teacher shouldn't have said that to you because it's illegal for the school to tell you they can't accomodate your child's learning needs......for any reason.

I'm sure she is trying to help you, though, so I wouldn't rat her out.

I'm sure DS will qualify for CTY, but try not to worry about it until you get the results, okay?

My father was diagnosed with cluster headaches in his thirties. It is genetic and I suffer from severe migraines, but they are somewhat different from cluster headaches. I believe current science says it is related to automatic nervous system, but I'm not totally certain I am correct in inferring this.

Interestingly, my father started his own business in his fifties. He told me the day he started his business he didn't have a headache and to this day he's never ever had another. He thinks stress kicks them off.

Maybe DS needs a few mental health days off from school. Could the depression be rooted from something going on at school or are you for sure it's the supplement?

p.s. I think homeschooling is great. For anyone for any reason. smile
