ARI announcements

[Guest guest]

Dear Subscriber,

A few announcements:

1. We recently uploaded two historical autism videos to

www.Autism-RecoveredChildren.org. One video shows an

ADOS (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule–Generic)

assessment on an autistic child before and after DAN!

biomedical intervention. The ADOS is considered by many

to be the " gold standard " procedure to diagnose autism.

According to Dr. Caroline Gomez, the co-Director of the

Auburn University Autism Center, this is the first child in

her 20-year career who lost an autism diagnosis.

The second video, which is divided into four parts, contains

the presentations from our Recovered Children Parent

Forum. The forum was held last month at our Defeat Autism

Now! Conference in Seattle, Washington. In the video, eight

parents describe their children prior to DAN! biomedical

intervention, list some of the treatments they tried, and then

describe how their children are doing now. Before-and-after

films of the children are integrated throughout the videos.

2. We recently expanded our publication list. This includes

the presentations from our Physician's Training course (4-

DVD set) and the presentations from our Nurse's Training

course (4-DVD set). We are also selling two new books,

Shore's 'Understand Autism for Dummies' and Dr.

Melvin Kaplan's 'Seeing Through New Eyes.' Shore

is an excellent writer with a good grasp of the issues that

matter most to parents. Dr. Kaplan's work was recently

described in our latest quarterly newsletter, the Autism

Research Review International. To learn more about Dr.

Kaplan's work, you can read Dr. Steve Edelson's interview

with him at: http://www.autism.org/interview/kaplan.html

3. We are sad to announce the passing of two important

people who have made a huge impact on the autism world –

Dolan and Lorna King (see interview: See Dr.

Edelson's interview: http://www.autism.org/interview/ljk.html).

We will miss both of them greatly.
