Good Evening, I just want to report back. That My daughters excessive wiping has completely stopped. She still says she feels sticky but it does not cause tantrums. I cant thank you enough, our family is so relaxed and we are happy without the tears of her always feeling "wet" or sticky. Her teacher still reports that she struggles to concentrate and remember things they learn in class. Is there something we could give her to help? You are a blessing.
