Guest guest Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 I don't mean to offend anyone, but I was just curious as to how many men are on the board trying to recover their child. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 FYI - I do most of the research, share it with my husband, who is very busy working. Then he helps me decide. He started the push for chelation way before I was ready to start it. He may not be on the board, but I share most of it with him. He's also the one who gets up in the night to dose if my son doesn't wake up for his alarm or my phone call. My son is in the cellar room, so I call if he doesn't come up. We both have our alarms set. But, sometimes he's so sleepy he just hangs up on me and goes back to sleep!!! Then Dad gets up and brings the pills around. Usually, our son doesn't even remember the episode in the morning. But, as far as Dads go, he is as active a participant as his time allows. We are also working on him too. His hair test that the naturopath did was almost all red lined. The ND said that was the next to the worst hair test that could have been. So, we're recovering Dad along with the kids. Ah, my turn will come :-/ P. Arias wrote: > > I hit the *send* button before I was finished. > > I am not saying men aren't caring or don't do their share.

They are 9 & 10. my baby has yeast, as far as I can tell so far. My Miles is 10 & he's my ASD child. The three of us all fight for one another & we are all in this to be the best we all can be. They are awesome boys & would do anything for eachother! > That's similar to my story: divorced, almost never hear from the ex, my sons (18 and 21) and I stick close together. When the ex was around, I very much down-played how much I was giving the kids supplements and such. Years ago, when I first did a vitamin therapy for my kids (B vitamins and magnesium) and their handwriting and some other issues improved, the ex announced it had to be the video games that was helping their hand-eye coordination. He completely dismissed the idea that the vitamins made any difference. They had been playing video games for years. So I don't think so.

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 She is in good hands. Mine is 9. And I just recently figured out what was wrong with her. She would rage from morning to night. Hated the world. Started at age 2. It was awful. At age 3, she was looking to attack with a knife. Man, when I think about it, it makes me sick to my stomach, that these kids have to suffer. ANyway, this past year, with the help of a wonderful woman who found me on the internet, we pieced together what was going on. It is mercury. At least we are not in the dark anymore, and we can concentrate on heeling her. She is at least stable and getting a bit better. At least now she goes out of the house. She use to sit on the couch all day long, cutting hair and trying to cut moles off her body. She thought she was the ugliest thing on earth, and she is beautiful. Ooops, sorry to go on and on....

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 Thanks for the kind words . Glad to hear you are headed in the right direction now. You are right, its horrible how a lot of these kids have to suffer, and boy do some of them and their families suffer. I've seen kids that you can tell are absolutely terrified and traumatised by the ordinary world, and many of the people around them, including their teachers etc, are oblivious to it and have an attitude like.... " oh he's OK, he's just autistic..... " Hopefully the more we get our kids better, the more the message will get out, and the more other parents will become informed that they can help their kids tremendously.

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 My little girl was very bright when she was born. Walked early, talked early, although I'm sure some of the early vaccines were taking their toll along the way, in terms of things like jaundice after hep B and then digestive issues after that, etc. But once that MMR hit she had a really big reaction and things started going rapidly down hill from there. Although we noticed how sick she got, we didn't realise how bad things were at first because she was still picking up some words here and there. But after a little while I noticed words that used to be said were gone and then it wasn't long before all speech was gone. Tantrums and uncontrollable crying soon followed, eye contact evapourated, then came the self harming, and the shear screaming. When it got to its worst, the poor little thing often wouldn't even tolerate anyone being in the same room as her. (I know many of you know how that makes you feel as a parent, when you child doesn't even want you in the same room.) It was great that I got a hold of Andy's book relatively early and found this group. It has made a massive difference. We now have full speech back, spelling and reading is really good. Maya now plays properly with her brother, when before she didn't even know he existed. Her cognition seems to keep improving as we get through round after round. For example, our most recent indication of improvement came about a week or so ago. Maya and her brother started fighting. By the time I got to the room her brother Rohan was crying and Maya was no where to be found. I gave Rohan a hug and made sure he was OK, then I went in search of Maya. If the kids fight, they get a time out upstairs in their bedrooms. So I go upstairs and sure enough Maya is in her room with the door closed. Looks like she has given herself a time out. I open the door and Maya is sitting on the edge of the bed looking sad. Maya looks up at me.... Maya: Sorry Dada. Me: What happened Maya? Maya: I got angry. I hit Rohan. I hurt him. I'm sorry Dad. I should go downstairs and give Rohan and hug and say I am sorry. I was speechless. So I just nodded. Then Maya went downstairs and did exactly what she said she would, and both the kids were happy again. One of the easiest moments of parenting I've had in a long time. I'm really tired from " every 3 hours " round the clock, weekend after weekend. But when things like this happen, my motivation couldn't be greater. I've thanked Andy a number of times....but I don't think I can thank him enough.....thanks again Andy..... Arias wrote: > > , are you seeing progress with your little one?

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 OK, you got me crying my eyes out over here. You made my day!!! I feel like giving her a big (((hug)))) myself!!!! It is so interesting, becuase my dd never wanted us around either. She use to hide in the closest to eat. It was like she hated us. Last night she told me that I looked really pretty for the first time. (I looked like death, actually.) She use to never be able to be by me, because everything about me scared her or made her really irritable. <sigh> I am going to email Andy right now and thank him.

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 From what I hear from others it seems the older the child, the longer things take. This kinda makes sense when you look at general healing, for example, if my son grazes his leg, the skin heals up a lot quicker than mine dose if I have the same accident. But there have been a few members of this group that are getting good results with older kids, so I think its worth some serious consideration. And adults are successfully using this protocol, so I think that's encouraging.

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 we've done a lot of gut healing, immune support, plus lots of therapy, auditory training, diets, all through DAN. she's actually come a very long way because the HEP. B made her have severe gut issues, severe hypotonia, apraxia, severe sensory disorder. we also did about 7 rounds of TD DMSA but it was about 2 years ago. we've even looked into the testosterone issue. she has tantrums still and lots of stress and anxiety but is mostly non verbal so she cannot describe her feelings. i think the one thing that i've not addressed is the metals and that is the main thing, really............

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Kathy, That all happened from the Hep B vaccine. My dd was damaged from that vaccine too, and we thought she had high testosterone levels too. She wanted to be a boy and was very violent. She is more bi-polar. The ALA and yeast control is really helping her.
