Biography
Hello my name is Stacy Monaco and I'm a mother of three children and a wife to a man with MS. My husband was diagnosed with MS when he was very young (he was only 23) and has been taking very expensive medications ever since. My only son has been diagnosed with ADHD,Autism Spectrum Disorder and Bi-Polar disorder. He also takes several expensive medications. He recently had a couple of stays in an IP mental health facility because his behavior got way out of control. My youngest had to have extensive dental work in a hospital under anethesia and we are way over our heads in medical bills. I just can't seem to keep up and most of them are going into collections. I just need a little help from the wonderful, giving people I know are still out there, to get us caught up and back on our feet. I'm always the one trying to help others so this was very hard for me to start asking for help.

Over the summer of 2011 my mother got very sick with COPD and her lung started collapsing. Every time they thought they got it back up, it would collapse again. She ended up having to have a portion of her lung removed. The dr told us her other lung was in pretty bad shape to and could do the same thing down the road. Well in December 2011 her only "good" lung collapsed and we are worried she may have to go through this all over again. My mother takes care of my kids for me because I can't afford day care. We could really use a Christmas miracle this year!
My Purpose
I am trying to raise money to help us pay for the many, many medical bills that we have accumulated. Childhood bi-polar disorder is something that NO CHILD should ever have to deal with and no mother should ever have to deal with the ups and downs of bi-polar disorder. Ever since my son was 4 years old his moods have been an extreme challenge for me. I'm constantly the mother that other people are looking at wondering why she can't control her child. It's a feeling that no one should have to have. I love my son dearly and when his mood is stable, he's awesome but in a moment it can turn very badly. :(

Hi there is a 2 really good clinics that are integrative medicine that
are conventional and natural therpies for all mental health concerns.
One is the amen clinics they do a scan that looks at blood flow and
brain activity to see where in the brain is under and over active they
are holistic phychiatrists. there is also a clinic called the health
recovery center that looks at all possible underlying causes and
treats to rebalance naturally. they are both in the states. As one so
young please find the real cause and help him naturally it is so hard
for anyone ecspecially one so young to have to live with side effets
of medication

I understand I lost a son in 2007 from disability problems.He had ADHD
and all my kids a form of it.What i discovered was that school was to
tough on my kids because of being picked on.they could not handle the
pressure and they reacted in violent ways.Their emotions were to much
to deal with.Try homeschool.I did not take the advice the school gave
me to home school my kids and i regret it.They have had self esteem
problems ever since.They have easy public home school programs that
send you a computer for free,pay internet fees, everything is funded
through the federal government.Just look online and its easy to
find.Good luck
