QUESTION:
Mental health counselling for lead poisoned children (post-treatment),
14 Dec 2005, Any State Any Country in the World I am looking for post treatment therapy issues for children with a history of lead poisoning - for mental health counselling. The client in question began treatment for her lead poisoning at 1.5 years old and had a lead level of 38 units - she is now 9 years old. |

ANSWER: 14 Dec 2005 Dear David, I've never been asked the question you have asked before but my own experience has caused me to wonder how lead poisoned children should be treated in school and I sent an email to the Global Lead Network (Leadnet egroup) about it - please see below - and received an interesting answer from Mike Martin (immediately below) - a man you may well want to contact directly. You could also consider joining one or both of two useful egroups so that you may put your question to the egroups and receive other answers from other people OR, if you do not wish to actually join an egroup, please let me know and I could put your question to the two egroups I had in mind, that is: 1. Leadnet - send an email to leadnet-on@mail-list.com to subscribe to the list 2. Plumbism and Autism Network (PAN) - go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Autism-Lead/ to join the group [where you will also see among the links - http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/Autism-Lead/links/ - the Anne Winner article I referred to in my email to Leadnet:- look for the title "The Early Lead Poisoned Child In The Classroom: Symptomatology and Intervention"] Please be in touch. Regards Yours Sincerely Elizabeth O'Brien |
