Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 unfortunately though the only two classical homeopaths getting results with our children are Pierre Fontaine and the Ullmans in Washington (ritalin free kids). The skill lies in the homeopath having success with autism, and not just prescribing remedies to mask the symptoms (we use One constitutional remedy) and the skill in case taking to find the correct silimium. That is where Pierres talent truly is, in finding the correct constitutional remedy. it was interesting as I was telling another MD about our experience the other day and two sentences later he was trying to sell me on hbot, see I don't think he got it, we are going no further at this point and most likely will never have to. I gotcha Heidi! It truly is a learning curve, and with so little info. out there it is even tougher. We are looking to fully write our stories and put them online for people to access, many times when someone is FULLY recovered or cured they simply move on with their life and dont share with others. Pierre has had that happen many times he said. I told him how I understand that the internet and autism cannot dominate once the condition is lifted, we owe that to our children and families, however I feel it is my responsibility to a community that got me through so many dark days to re tell our experience with homeopathy. much love and healing, xoxo Beth in Brooklyn > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I am getting crazy with all the different opinions...

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 Hi there! I am sorry to hear that. What happened? Pierre was fabulous for our family, especially with pinpointing the remedy, answering emails and returning phone calls even from Europe while on vacation, all for free. The dosing he left up to us, and at first was a bit tough to figure out when to dose, but became clear quickly. There were times we have waited a week to dose and other times every other day. Did you follow up with him? Before you change I would encourage you to contact him. Was the remedy not the correct one? much love and healing to you, xoxo Beth in Brooklyn > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I am getting crazy with all the different opinions...

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 Thanks so much the social piece is HUGE for my son, I did read the Amy Lansky book last year and I found her story amazing. Thank you, Alison Re: The many doctors - Recovery Histories absolutely you can do both until you are ready to make a smooth transition! for us when it was time to remove supplements I did it in incriments (spelling, lol!) the same way I had added them initially. Our first supplements to go were antifungals (rx) at about 6 weeks in. The two major issues that were resolved were mito dysfunction and social emotional skills. The same way a body is shocked if too many things are added at once, the same holds true for removal. We are down to basics, a multi, fish oil, 1 capsule of c, and thats it (probiotics once in awhile). We have been able to add back all formerly intolerant fruits and vegtables (phenols, etc..). I saw on another thread I believe someone post that homeopathy will work only if biomed is done first, that is simply not true, it uses a different mechanism for healing. It strengthens the vital force and promotes the body to heal itself. I have never done any biomedical intervention on myself, and I feel better than I ever have. My son no longer shows any signs of autism or adhd (inattentive), met all goals for st, pt and ot within the six month time frame. Not everyone may respond as quickly but most of the people I have met are showing gains. the best book to read is impossible cure by amy lansky. Her son from what I understand is still autism free, living a typical life and headed to college away from home right now. much love, and healing, Beth> > > > > > > > > > > > > > I am getting crazy with all the different opinions...

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 I did follow up with him. The first remedy wasn't correct I went to his office 2 times afterwards once alone and with once my son and after he said that he'll call me in few days to give me the remedy he didn't get back to me. I emailed him few times, he just said to dig deeper, although he said already he has everything and then he stopped emailing me. I told him that I gave him all the info. If he didn't know what to do with my son he should have told me so. I paid a lot of money for this and for my son to be his patient and not for Pierre to rip us of. This made my husband not believe in homeopathy and now I have to start from scratch. Overall I was and still am extremely disappointed and feel cheated. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I am getting crazy with all the different opinions...

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 I have an appointment with Pierre in couple of months. I'm leery too about homeopathy. I have spent so much money on homeopathy from Houston to Canada with no results.I'm wondering if other kids seem to have mild autism or high functioning . I did email him once and I didn't get an email back . I called him and he said he just emailed me and I still have not gotten the email. Its interesting that various families get different experiences from doctors . I've had seen this with DAN too. So I am in limbo about this homeopathy for now. I feel like saying " you show me the recovery " and " I'll show you the money. " Kathy > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I am getting crazy with all the different opinions...

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 "Recovered" seems to mean different things to different people. Some call recovered loss of ASD diagnosis but the child continues on the diet,supplements,all that.I hear others say recovered is they are in typical classroom setting functioning like their peers.Even says her son is recovered but she continues to do HBOT,lots of things. I think recovered is free from all of this,diet,endless supplements,therapy,and NO signs of ASD at all. Is that possible? I am so confused by what "recovered" means. Is it possible to be free from all of this one day-No med,No diet or therapies? Thats the kind of recovery i want,with 4 kids,thats the kind of recovery I desperately need for my son.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 I have read about only 3 recoveries that are diet and supplement-free that were recovered at 5 or over. Since some kids can grow out of symptoms, it is difficult to tell if the person really needed to be recovered if they were under 4. I know most would not have grown out of symptoms, but decades ago, children did, so it's always a wonder unless you get a lot of details. On this Internet, we just hear a line or two, so we really don't know the details. When I say thousands have been recovered, I mean they are in regular school, not dependent upon psych meds. But, they are dependent upon something. I see lots of relapses even after people were off of all diet and meds for even two years. So, the pathogens can always regrow. It's not just an injury, it's a pathogen thing, and their immune system can fail at any time. Older people get MS, or some other diagnosis, but it's really the same causes many say. So, those who have never been sick, do fall into chronic symptoms at any age as well. I have seen video on this Internet of people sharing their story of recovery from tickborne infections. Many report that they lost speech and ability to communicate effectively, even lost motor skills, etc. They don't diagnose it as autism if you get ill as an adult, but they do have similar symptoms. I have talked to practitioners recovering kids from autism, and they tell me great success stories of hundreds or 80%, but they say that almost all still need diet and/or supplements to maintain it. To be honest, when I started, I would have settled for regular school, which I got. But, now that I got that, I want more. I continue to see healing, but the future is unknown. Since I didn't start treatments on one of mine till he was 14, I am still in shock that he is even recovered. All that stress and pain we went through, all the specialists who didn't help him. It just didn't seem possible. In reality, seeing a child lose their disabling symptoms is like watching a miracle, and I keep having to remind myself it's real because it's so darn unbeleivable. I hope your child meets your goal for him, and you get to share with everyone how you did it. Love and prayers, Heidi N > > " Recovered " seems to mean different things to different people.

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 Hi, We are starting homeopathy with Dr. Luc de Scheppers foremost predecessor, Dr. Farah Gron. They are classical homeopaths and Dr. Luc's books are considered authority in the field. Their way of dosing homeopathic remedies are particularly effective and they have treated the autistic population successfully. A book by Dr. Luc is said to be coming out later this year on Autism and Homeopathy. From all the reading I have been doing, I am certain that Dr. Farah will bring my son the closest to a cure-- and we have tried everything from IVIG, DAN, chelation, b12 shots, hbot, lamictal, valtrex-- you name it, we've done it. Unlike, Dr. Luc, Many homeopaths don't use the 6th edition of the Organon-- and it is believed that the methodology used in the 6th edition is much more effective. Please check: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luc_De_Schepper and http://www.drluc.com/practice.htm I am looking to connect with other Dr. Luc or Dr. Gron's patients. If you are out there, drop me an email, I'd love to know how it is going! If anyone wants to check with me in about 3-4 months, I'd have a better idea how we are doing. As I said, I personally believe, we are finally on the right path. Ranjani > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I am getting crazy with all the different opinions...

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 MelindaIn my view recovery is not cured. I use the term "in recovery" to imply he is working at appropriate age and is developing academically and socially at age. If I can keep this up he willl develop normally and although the underlying root cause is still unknown with the meds and diet in place I am allowing this child to become a functioning and positive member of this world.

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 I think the best, most realistic approach to take it to know that recovery is a real possibility but just like any other chronic condition it will have to be monitored and there will be times throughout life when extra care will have to be given and of course, a healthy lifestyle style that includes excercise and healthful eating and sleeping habits. During times of low immunity and high stree, supplementation and dietary intervention may be required until the system is able to stablize itself. I think that's something we could definitely live with!!!!To: mb12 valtrex Sent: Thu, August 19, 2010 9:04:55 AMSubject: RE: Re: The many doctors - Recovery Histories It certainly is possible.

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 Yes it is possible but of the kids I know who recovered, it was before age 6 and the children were not severe. Also the kids I've seen who improve usually respond to the gfcf diet and MB12. Many of my friends have been doing biomed and therapy for many years and at 7 and 8 we are still hoping our children will one day speak in complete sentences (or just speak in many cases) or function socially. > > I think the best, most realistic approach to take it to know that recovery is a > real possibility but just like any other chronic condition it will have to be > monitored and there will be times throughout life when extra care will have to > be given and of course, a healthy lifestyle style that includes excercise and > healthful eating and sleeping habits.

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 My personal opinion is that it's not fair to hold our kids to a different standard than typical kids. Typical kids are on supps, diets and medication, too. If they can function typically and be indistinguishable from their peers, isn't that what were all trying to do? To me, that's recovery. Managed by supps/meds/diet or not, typical behavior is typical behavior.Some kids will find recovery with minimal biomed support and others won't. Some won't find recovery at all. I'll take recovery however I can get it. Cheryl~http://www.gryffins-tail.blogspot.com~@midian42~ "Recovered" seems to mean different things to different people. Some call recovered loss of ASD diagnosis but the child continues on the diet,supplements,all that.I hear others say recovered is they are in typical classroom setting functioning like their peers.Even says her son is recovered but she continues to do HBOT,lots of things. I think recovered is free from all of this,diet,endless supplements,therapy,and NO signs of ASD at all. Is that possible? I am so confused by what "recovered" means. Is it possible to be free from all of this one day-No med,No diet or therapies? Thats the kind of recovery i want,with 4 kids,thats the kind of recovery I desperately need for my son.

The skill lies in the homeopath having success with autism, and not just prescribing remedies to mask the symptoms (we use One constitutional remedy) and the skill in case taking to find the correct silimium. That is where Pierres talent truly is, in finding the correct constitutional remedy. it was interesting as I was telling another MD about our experience the other day and two sentences later he was trying to sell me on hbot, see I don't think he got it, we are going no further at this point and most likely will never have to.

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 My son, too. I once heard someone describe their son's descent into autism as if he were on "a dimmer switch". That was the case with my son, too. I'd say it probably started around 18 months or so and it was so gradual and so subtle that you could barely notice, til one day BAM! something's wrong. It was hard to to put a finger on and he was warm and engaged with (very specific) people. Autism was overlooked. This continued until he was three and a half-4. Then slowly the dimmer switch started to come back on. We've never experienced any wows to speak of, his gains are just slow and steady. In much the same way he got worse, he is getting better. He has never had terribly severe issues and when his symptoms were at their worst, it really didn't last all that long. He just turned 8 a few weeks ago. Over the winter, we hit a wall and things were at their absolute worst. He was spinning out of control. I saw behaviors in my son that we had never seen before. This is when I started searching deeper than my doctor and his school and therapies and discovered biomed. Maybe he would continue to get better on his own, I don't know. But it's a chance I am not willing to take. Especially after seeing what he went through this winter. Imagine this beautiful little boy who had always always been so content in his own little world crying to me that he wishes he was dead. That was just heartbreaking. So up until 5 months ago, there was no biomed, rx, or ABA for my son. Just speech and ot for an hour a week and a special education classroom. I've have heard parents report much worse conditions for their children who were still able to recover. I have every hope for my son and every other child here, as well. Tonight he was upset to learn that some kids on his team had been invited to a birthday party for someone else on his team. He was not : ( Four years ago, he barely would have acknowledged these people let alone cared about whether or not they were having a birthday party. He hated parties! lol. So you see we've come so far. But sometimes, it just seemed like he was a happier person back then.....I cried tonight at his scrimmage game. You have never seen anyone love the game of football the way my boy does. Sometimes it hurts to watch him have to work twice as hard to be half as good, but it has been so good for him and he's realizing how strong he is physically and mentally. I was watching some of the boys out on the field having a great time - only caring so much and just having fun. It comes so easy for some of them. And there's my son, who cares about this damn game so much, and it's so extremely difficult for him to keep up. I'm so proud of him. I bet the majority of us would have quit by now if we were in his shoes. How can I not atleast TRY to help him???-TammyTo: mb12 valtrex Sent: Thu, August 19, 2010 3:53:36 PMSubject: Re: The many doctors - Recovery Histories : Have you posted your story somewhere on what you did and all, so we can learn?

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 I know what you mean... it is painful when they are half-way in and half-way out and realize they are different... when they are in that fog, they are oblivious to all and happy.

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 I would also say that there is a strange comfort in a substantially seperate classroom - all the parents are dealing with ASD or other big issues with their kids. When you move to an Integrated Classroom, it gets painful again. Suddenly you are shocked again by how easily typical kids learn, how quickly their social skills are growing. Sometimes I have the crazy fantasy of wishing I could freeze typical kids in time, so that my little guy could try to catch up!
