Guest guest Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 Great post, Heidi : )To: mb12 valtrex Sent: Thu, August 19, 2010 1:28:40 PMSubject: Re:Re : Re: The many doctors - Recovery Histories My son had numerous symptoms and diagnoses, self-harm, poor speech, tics, staring off into space, no friends, assaultive, doing things over and over, clumsy, never laughed or giggled, never cried, never shed one tear until age 3 and then rarely after, etc., and had symptoms from birth. I did receive a tetanus vaccine in my 6th month of pregnancy, so that could be partly why. He was not able to do school for even 5 minutes without psych meds, and on them, he still was not able to do regular school. He was put into corners, seclusion rooms, and finally special needs classes. He was looked upon as one of the most difficult in the class to control. When recovery efforts were started, he quickly raised to the top of the class in abilities and then I pulled him out and he successfully went to regular classes. I never got one complaint from his regular education teachers, except that he refused to do his homework. The homework issue is normal for all the males in my family, so I can't relate it to autism. He is not the same as he would have been had he never had autism. He doesn't act "cool" or experiment with alcohol and drugs. He doesn't sneak off to party like other 18-year olds are doing. So, there are pluses to all this. LOL. He would have never been able to live independently. He would never have been able to get a driver's license or hold down a job, mostly because his communication was off. He would argue, say things that didn't make sense, not able to hold down a conversation. His views were off. He would answer questions with a question and never talk about himself, only others. We could never problem-solve. He denied ever doing anything wrong no matter that he knew we saw him do it. After he recovered, I asked him why he would never admit to anything. He said his brain was so foggy that he thought he could convince us that he was innocent. He also said that he would think of things in his brain, but that he would forget them right away. So, he couldn't hold a thought long enough to communicate well or write things down. He did learn to write down his thoughts, but he had to have tutoring to do it. I still maintain that adults can be recovered. I am happy to look at anyone's protocol and symptoms and tell them what I think is missing. The real cause of autism is lack of decent medical care and lack of the governmental regulatory agencies keeping toxins out of our environment. They are medically ill. Each one has different medical issues, but the similarities are digestion, immune system, pathogens, toxins, lack of nutrients, not able to handle daily toxins. The first thing I did was remove carpeting. It out-gasses horribly. Also, make sure there is no daily mold exposure from the car's A/C or house's A/C or other sources. Also, rid wireless internet and other sources of electrosmog. I can't imagine trying to recover a child who has wireless baby monitors and such in their room. I would then go to a chiropractor that is knowledgeable on chronic illnesses being related to spinal misalignments. After that just go slow. Going slow is the only way that I know how to be successful, slowly adding treatments, paying attention to their reactions. I think there are many ways to achieve recovery; it's basically knowing the main cause is an over-whelmed immune system from pathogens and toxins. In truth, when I looked up recoveries years ago, many of them were by parents who were doctors and nurses, so it does give them an edge. I also have a background that gives me an edge. So, I do feel for those who are starting from scratch, but know many of the docs said they felt like they were starting from scratch, admitting they were not told about autism treatments. Love and prayers, Heidi N My son's doctor has a daughter who was no treated until she was 13 and she's recovered now. BUT she had the "light" form of autism and it make differnce for me. When you speak about recovering of your Oldest, Heidi, from WHAT degree of what we call autisme he had been recovered? na Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
