Rose with family

One month left...

Ros is resting after the morning session with patterning. Some days are really good, some are really not. This is a fairly good day. Ros is very content after the training and gets stronger every day, beautifully lifting her head and torso towards the sun...

More sounds every day too and big sisters and brothers are getting good at communicating with litte sister.

One month left until we head for Philadelphia and IAHP again for revisit with Ros. We are very exited about going and also wondering how to get it together. But, Life takes care!

We are so grateful to all be at good health right now. Blessings and Love from our Paradise.

Impressed!

Rose is blessed with a very sweet and caring neurologist who is very happy with Rose progress since birth and not the least since starting on the training program with IAHP. At the last visit a few days ago she stated to be IMPRESED with Rose's progress! And we are too!

Bravo Rosita!

THANK YOU LIONS and Ulla!

Thank you for very generous donation Ulla and Lions in Ljungskile!

Thank you Annika and anonymous for your very kind donations !
We are very grateful that you support Rose in her training with the IAHP.

Love and Blessings,

Rose and whole family!!

And some more pics of my family from lately.

Leia will loooove my new patterning skills!

Last, but not the least! may I present Mozart, my oldest cat. They live outdoors, which is good, but I would prefere to have them around all the time! He always sits looking into my room! He is 14 years old.

Eloge to my Grandmother

My sweet grandmother is a'doldis'. She works in the background and is most often available for me and my family to help out in diferent situations of crisis. Such as needing a lymphatic drainage! Or mom sees late at night that there is breakfast-gear missing for the next morning when hungry sisters and brothers show the world what they go for :-) Or going to get some of the big children from friends or trainings, when mom and dad are reeeaally busy... She's a rock! And more than that, she is cute and sweet and loves me!

She comes every day to do patterning with Mum and Dad, and t h a t is one of the best things I know! I am starting to become a c r a w l e r soon. Eager to show all my friends at the Institutes!!

So here are just some pics of Grandma, and me.

By the way, when she is not a doldis she is having her own beautiful café in the village!! Café Tant Grön! Cool place. And before that she had for 20 years the world famous (true!) Tångbadhuset i Ljungskile. An old seaweed Bath house from the beginning of last century. AWSOME place, everyone says. And awesome lady she is.

Kisses & Blessings,
Shanty Bjarka Rose - yea, sometimes I feel it's good to use my full-blossoming name! Take care!

I am going to grab that bananarattle!!

Winter & snowprincesses

After another week of flue for mom and Ros and a health getting stronger, hearts getting warmer & happier finally there was a bit of snow in middle of february!! Ros was out for a few wonderful days together with the big girls, catching snowflakes with her eye-lashes, making angels in the snow and riding down the looong hill from the postboxes to our yard, in the pulka! Such fun for all of us! Rose fell asleep going downhill, it was so cosy in sisters arms and with the fresh snowy air...

Here some pictures

See you soon!

Blessings, Rose

Bjarne visiting Rose!

And Heart speaks...

Rose having her great friend Bjarne visiting and sharing with her.

Always such beautiful moments for Ros, and all of us.

Always giving us greater depth in our communication on all levels with Rose.

Thank you Bjarne

In the beginning there was...

Rose newborn and transferred

to hospital nr 2.

... not much hope for our girl. For the many. By looking at how severely injured her brain must be. To us she was absolutley showing in every way that she was here to live her life, from the beginning. Despite what happened and the very bad condition she was in. We felt totally trusting and resting with her in what was. What she needed to go through was painful to watch, and he longing for her close all the time was immeasurable. But we were held firmly and lovingly in the warm arms of life. We still are.

When Ros was 5 hours old she was transferred to her 2nd hospital to undergo hypothermia.

And much else. Ros was in a coma.

Stringed to cabels and needels and monitors and beepers and medications she was almost impossible to move to my arms after the three-day hypothermia. But we did it. She was warmed up in my arms, gradually to 37'C from 33'C on her 4th night in life. What a gift! To finally sit with our babygirl close to my heart.

After 6 days she needed no more oxygen-help. She could manage on her own. Miracle-girl. For the first time we could see her whole face since the first dramatic seconds at birth, as the last little mask over her nose was taken away. Pretty baby... Our hearts singing the sweetest songs and celebrating her coming closer and closer to us.

The next day we had to swap hospitals again, just as she was 'getting better'and gaining trust in being here and overcoming the greatest threats. It was promised that it would be very much better for her. Even though every one knew how extremely sensitive this 1 week old baby was right then...

She had difficult seizures on the way in the ambulance that again, we were not allowed to join.

What a chaos for her and us to change places and people. Not many days went by until we were more or less told that a child does not survive this a severe injury of the brain.

And even without saying it we felt noone could understand our immense love and happiness for our child. Our miracle-girl! The lack of comprehension from the doctors giving the doom that we should not expect so much and the absolute thick darkness covering our meetings, from their part was impossible to understand.

I felt like a prisoner and thought that maybe they would never give me 'my baby' back, but lock her up as a national belonging, as she was not a real being needing to be with her mummy, so hurt as she was... Anyways who really thinks that such a hurt child does have any joy or comprehension? Don't they all become dumb? (The most common belief...)

With all examinations done, all money they could get used and all diagnoses made we could suddenly go home. No problem. I thought it had all been a bad joke. What was the total change from one day to another? Didn't she require all the surveillance now suddenly? It had sounded like an uthopia to leave the hospital the very day before we were 'given freedom'. That's how I felt.

~~Home again at last!!~~

It took another 6 months until I dared to really start working' with Ros. Until then she was far to ill. Difficult seizures and a very vulnerable state in every way. But such a joy to be with this sweet and brave girl.


My investigations for alternative anti-epileptic medication started almost at once. Trying to find rainforest-remedies is not an easy task and probably very forbidden. I read all and more about the life-threatening medications she was on, and felt then helpless as I knew how adictive they were and how dangerous it would be to take her off them. Trapped in medications, that according to what I felt and understood (and could see, as she was endlessly tired and could not take in life around her, being so sedated) would rather make her state worse. She was still not so conscious. Sleeping, sleeping, sleeping. And when awake in seizures. Lots of seizures.


We were told to give her a third kind of anti-cunvulsant, to take the 'dangerous seizures' away. We said nonono. Not another one, and knowing that it was a kind that often gave visual problems and blindness. We were knowing something else.



When Ros was one year old I had taken off one of her anti-convulsant medications with a very gradual detoxification proposed by her doctor, as the seizures were so aggressive and conected to the times when medication given.


That medication was suggested more than twenty years ago not being given to young children due to the increased mortality in the group of children taking it, and some other nasty side-effects. I still can not understand how it could have been suggested for anything other than very short term use.


The medication Ros is still on is on its way out too. We are seeing a growing in her alertness already and have bigger contact over all.

Blessings. The mama.

Rough and tough, but spring is ahead...

Beautiful New Year Celebrators

These need to be tried!!!

The Real One even brought a ton of parcels!

isn't that... the Real Thing TOMTEN!!ho ho ho...

* Kids & cousins together at Christmas time *

A long time has passed, seemingly, with too much turmoil going on around our family* for us to proceed in the way ment with Ros's program.

We have all been very upsidedown from time to time and exhausted.

Also we have just been through the darkest time of the year in Sweden, and for someone getting out very little it is a not so good time! Ros and mum are craving light!!!

But, now the light is turning back and the days are becoming longer again! Sun will return! Spring will come! We will take walks in the morning dew barefeet ... soon.

Ros is growing and is waiting for life to take her even further. And she is waiting for us to get hold of this ship and cruise the oceans! Here she comes!

*This was due to a report to the social authorities that our children ( or, some of them) would not be taken care of and would be 'depressed' and that we would be uncapable parents)(And it was suggested that we only care about Ros and not about the other children). Among a long list of things proposed as a clear truth these things reported made our whole family involved in this investigation that has been both deeply humiliating and tragic for the children and to some extent also to us, and most of all very, very energy- and timedraining. And very sad. Though, very learning!

The person reporting has obviously very much pain and succeeds in projecting it outside of the own person, but in a devastating way to all of us.

Ros program has suffered greately of this, as has our economy with hours and hours and hours of meetings and phonecalls, and many emotions rising in all of family. Having to be met and seen and looked at.

What the social authorities have ''come to'' (that we never doubted), having now had all the meetings, talks and looking into our most personal everything is: Our children are such wonderful children, being so beautiful and well mannerd and certainly loved, seen, looked after and cared for. Closing of case.

(And it is also obvious that we spend a good amount of time with all children and have wise and clear ways of meeting needs, taking care of each and every one in the best way possible.

And that it is not taking from the children what we do for Ros, it is giving them means to be toghether with her and it gives them great growth.

This process has taken great part of more than two months of our life. (When ended more than 4 months had passed!) And of Ros's first 5 month training program.

The sky is endlessly clear blue and promises that it is all worth it. What shall follow we do not know. Life is. We are alive and that's the very gift.

This is the gift.

Our family has Grown! We Rise & Shine and carry with us in our heart of hearts that this life is prescious, that we all can do more of our best

and our being toghether. We see that others pain is not ours, and they are not blamed for it - but neither can we live it for them or take it away.

"To err is human, to forgive is divine"

Love Light and Trust, from us to you...

May the Light be...

Shimmering lights leading up, higher, lighter, brighter...

A Tribute to the Gals & Pals...

In these beautiful Christmas-times we are fortunate to spend a lot of time with all our children, seing and being with them morning, noon, day, evening and late night until they find their ways to bed and rest...

Rose is enjoying immensly the being-together of the whole family and is at times enduring the sisters and brothers happenings in the house :)

At the moment Rose is down with fever for the second time in a week and we want her to get very, very well. Very, very soon.

We wish you a Beautiful ending of the year

and a wonderfilled
