Q. Geheue

Ons het n Graad 4 leerling wat met spina bifida gebore is slegs die onderste gedeelte van die bene is motories aangetas.
Hy het wel ook n " shunt" wat in 2010 vervang is en het ergere sepsis gehad wat hom baie lank in die hospitaal gehou het
Ons kom agter dat hy deesdae al hoe meer " nie onthou" wat in die klas gebeur nie en dus gedurig onder stres is omdat sy huiswerk nie altyd alles gedoen word nie omdat hy nie kon onthou dat dit deel van die opdrag was nie. Wat kan ons doen om te help met die opskerping of dan om hom te help met beter onthou van take. Enige spesifieke vitamines dalk soos omega 3 & 6?

Dear Cathy,

Pardon my English reply - I am better able to express myself in English.

Please post your query to the CyberDoc as this falls outside my scope of practice. Generally Omegas 3 and 6 are beneficial for concentration as are the B-vitamins, however, in this specific case where other medications and difficulties play a role I cannot state whether this would be a good idea.

Best wishes,
Delia
