Re: [DoreProgram] Re: Group still here

You are right. The Dore closing did delay things for a lot of people. And it is hard. But it isn't the hardest thing our kids will have to do in life. Not by a long shot. And it is a character builder if you approach it the right way. Still I can understand you are tired. If you stop now you will certainly have some benefit from all the work you have done but not all you can have. The issues we face with these kinds of learning difficulties are DEVELOPMENTAL issues as well as Neurological issues. The more we stimulate and exercise the more the development will happen. The resistance shows that the immature brain is in need of further development. It happens more slowly and with more difficulty for some than others that is the sad, unfair and real part. But anything that is worth achieving is worth working for. There are easier protocols like My Sensory Solutions or Lens neurofeedback and they are effective perhaps you can transition to one of these but remember- there are chemicals that help development in the brain that only movement and exercise can release there. (Read the book "Spark" by Dr John Radey.) That is why the combination of Dore and one of these other protocols is the ideal. It doesn't matter if you do Dore before one of the others, during or after.  Still even if you do nothing else, many people do Dore and when the stimulation stops and the pathways rest a bit and all of a sudden the changes happen. Perhaps you will be one of those. Perhaps a rest is what you need. Listen to your gut on this and good luck with whatever you do. Olga

Hi All,
 
My daughter is still on the program going on almost 15 months. There is also a very hard and frustrating side of going thru the program as well as the good. It is good to hear both sides of it to let others know they are going through the same things. My daugthter, myself and my husband are at our wits end. My daughter hates doing the excersizes and especially the mental tasks. She does not hide this at all when you let her know it is time to do DORE.  It has been rather "unenjoyable" for all of us to say the least now. It is at the point we will be stopping it whether next appointment shows it is done or not.
 
Even though you cannot go back and change things I still cant help but feel the Dore closing period last year delayed the program from completing sooner.
 
Kim
