Re: Chelation protocol okay?/long

Hi Anissa!

I can relate to your feeling of having to prove yourself. I only

talk about my sons treatment to people who are interested and open.

I can't put my energy into convincing people that I am doing

something helpful for my son. My husband is much more confident

than I am and tells many people. I feel like if people know about

his treatment they expect results! OK well so do I but not the

results are not always coming on their timeline. And to me using

descriptive language no matter how simple is a step up from

functional language. But does a family member see the difference?

Come on a two or three word sentence is still baby talk! Some people

can see that any improvement after years of decline but it is so

much slower coming for my son than for a normal child. My son was

fine until 12 months and then withdrew from us after starting on

milk and wheat. We did ABA but nothing really made a difference

until I started the GFCF diet at 4 yo. From there my internet

search was started and we have a full array of supplements, etc. My

son never learned to talk before he slipped away so language is his

biggest weakness. We have only been chelating since February but we

are so happy with the results. He regained awareness earlier but

the language connection was not there. Now with reduced toxicity he

is using more language and much more open to learning and

interacting. His newest talents are playing catch and during last

round of chelation he was dry all night 2 nights in a row. This

gives me so much hope! He is also kicking the ball. I think maybe

his vision (3D?) is improving! Just a little update and love letter

to my son. Thanks guys for all the support, Maddie
