Another school I had hoped would accept Philip can not. German grade school kids are generally required to attend grade school in the neighborhood they live in. Next year this school will move to a full day school (8:30am-3:15pm). At this point, we maybe able to say we want full day school(Philip's school is only half day), and get him in. Germany will not allow me to home school (but I'm still praying to home school). It looks like he just has to stay in his present school. His teacher will not like this. She can not kick him out. She has to accept him until the end of 2ND grade. Poor Philip is so far behind, I see no way he can handle 2Nd grade. I am working hard with him every day. We are seeing progress. We also start detoxing him from heavy metal poisoning tomorrow. It is a very long slow process. You give the drug DMSA for 3 days every 4 hours (even in the middle of the night) then take an 11 day break, followed by the next round of DMSA. It could take a whole year to get rid of all the heavy metal (mostly Mercury). Every 4-6 weeks he will need lab work done (blood and urine). I wish I had more options for Philip. I guess all I can do is keep working with the tools God puts in my hands. Right now it looks like I only have a few small fish and some small crumbs of bread. The need looks over whelming. I figure God can do the math!
