Re: OT Son Rise Good report Re: Thoughts on autism _ $on ri$e

[Guest guest]

, I resent the implication with the $$ signs in Son-Rise.

For everyone's information, my friend has 5 children. Two of her boys

regressed into autism following the MMR vaccine. The middle son started the

high-pitched crying and had a 105 temperature within 10 minutes, for 10

hours, and was " gone " the next day. He'd never shown a sign of autism

previously. They have nurses in the family.

The last son wasn't supposed to get an MMR, but a nurse gave it to him by

mistake. He regressed into autism within 2-3 weeks. He hadn't shown a sign

of autism previously.

She had both boys, now 11 and 9, as tots in the local special segregated

school for autism. She took both out (first son was in a while) and did

expensive ABA at home with Rutgers staff visiting. This may have worked on

academic stuff, but not social. She stopped this, built Son-Rise classrooms

for both boys in the basement, and started 2 Son-Rise programs.

With Son-Rise, you encourage the kids to become good " try-ers. " You want

them to know that people are desirable to be around. You start with the

social and let the academic follow, working it in.

She has FIVE children. She sends her other kids to parochial school. She

couldn't afford all the bio-medical stuff, but she did do special diet from

an early age. And she started two Son-Rise programs. Long story short:

Her 11 year old son, at 10 years old, went through rigorous psychological

testing and no longer met the criteria for autism. He was one of the

gentlest youths the tester had ever met. He was mainstreamed in a local

middle school WITH NO AIDE.

She is a remarkable woman. She started a foundation: Heal Autism Now

Delaware (HAND Foundation). And even with 5 sportsy-active kids and a

husband who travels for work, she helped her challenged boys and helps

others, too. She has tried through the legislature towards obtaining more

educational choice for children in Delaware.

My friend does not appear to me to be wealthy, and Son-Rise does not appear

to me to be a multi-level marketing scheme. I have met Raun Kaufman; I

could see a faint mannerism reminiscent of autism, but other than that, he

drove all the way to Delaware from Massachusetts to speak at a public

hearing trying to get educational choice for these children in Delaware....

When he was a tot he spun plates, then his mom did the first 1,000 hours

with him herself, and so on.... I only hope my son can drive independently

that far -- or at all -- and give a speech like that some day.

If you would like to hear nice things about Son-Rise, please e-mail her at:

You don't have to spend a dime to implement a Son-Rise program. You can

check out the books at the library. You can use any room in your house and

the toys you have at home. You can get volunteers and work with your child

yourself.

We have done every therapy on the books. Son-Rise is the only one that is

not about money.\

If you want to go to the institute you can get financial aid to hear about

the program yourself. We just raised over $1000 to sent to Massachusetts so

that other families could use that to attend classes. But you do not need to

attend classes. The Kaufmans (the founders) did not. Just read the books and

ask around to talk to other parents doing Son-Rise.

Unless you are intimately familiar with Son-Rise you won't understand the

miracle. It is the most loving, supportive approach to connecting with

another human being that I have ever come across. xox to all you dedicated

parents for your loving work with your children, E
