URGENT April in Colorado - New Member Introduction

[Guest guest]

Hi April - so glad you found us...............see below............

Tylenol also can worsen the problem.

Would you consider seeing a homeopath immediately to nip this in the

bud, hopefully.

Email me privately. I know an excellent homeopath in Denver area.

You need to intervene now rather than later................this shows

injury to her brain - don't mean to scare you but mean to encourage

you to get help OUTSIDE the medical community

I treated a little girl last year (mom joined this list - may still

be here). Got MMR and others at age 4 for school in September and

started to regress into symptoms that looked like autism. I gave her

the appropriate remedy and she turned around. Mom hasn't kept in

touch well so don't know how she is now.

Hi Sheri,

I tried to email you privately but it bounced. I do not have a homeopath

but another friend recommended we contact one as well. I'm very nervous

about giving her anything right now. (She is allergic to so many

medications - penicilin, cephlex, zithromax. And now w/ this - I am scared

to give her anything.) But I would be open to talking to someone and

learning more about it. We are in Fort so Denver isn't too far away

if you have someone you would recommend.

Thank you,

April
