Let me begin with an observation on the latter. Developmental pediatricians in the Philippines are a rare breed. Or that's what I noticed. From society and organization websites, to forums, to word-of-mouth, to my own experience, they seem to be outnumbered by people who need their expertise. A parent of a child with developmental delays has to wait weeks or months to see one developmental pediatrician. Only thirty are listed on the Philippine Society of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics. Twenty-five in one Filipino autism blog, and that is not purely DevPeds. A child psychologist, child psychiatrist, and pediatric neurologist are mixed in the list, although they certainly are a big help too. At my son's speech therapy and psychology center I hear the same account from other parents - securing a time slot with a DevPed is hard. They are all fully booked throughout what could turn into a year. You may be lucky if someone withdraws but that rarely happens. I'm playing

Great post, - my favourite sweetener.
ReplyDeleteI worry about our depletion of the bees! Probably caused by HUMANS.
ReplyDeleteROG, ABCW
They're my prime suspects too :)
DeleteLove the "honey, honey" quote from Abbba!
ReplyDeleteThat would be a great experience to see how honey is made - right from the bees to the bottles!

ReplyDeleteI love honey! Thankfully, there is a local (Indiana) beekeeper who sells his natural honey in our town.
