It's been awhile - latest update on Xtian!

Hello!

Sorry I haven't written in awhile; however, things have gotten alot better with Christian. He has been on Risperdal since June of this year, and in the past 3 weeks his behavior has significantly improved. We now have a nurse for VNA of Spring Grove, who comes to the house twice a week to help us with Christian. He is more compliant, calm and affectionate, however; the medication has caused him to gain 20 lbs. His appetite has just decreased this past week, so we will wait and see if his weight goes back down. If it doesn't we may have to switch him to Abilify, which means the transition period may be another challenge. Will keep you posted.
