Guest guest Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Hi Viv, I agree that you need not go into a panic. You have no idea what you will be told yet. Your child may very well be on the spectrum but if he is talking, just not very much, he may have Asperger's Syndrome or very high functioning autism. There is no reason to think it will 'get worse'. Kirby didn't say (I don't believe) that ALL children with autism have bowel problems like that. Many do, but not all. Not all bang their heads aginst walls. There are some similarities that seem to be very commonplace in all of the kids, but a lot of it varies significantly. If your child is not having these issues now, he may not ever develop them. The big picture is generally seen in the first 3 years, (generally) and what you need to do now is to prepare yourself to help him, no matter what the diagnosis. Speech and language disorders are actually 2 different things, so first you have to determine which he has or if he has both. Does he have actual speech problems? Is he difficult to understand? Is he stammering and stuttering? Is he dropping sounds like in using mostly vowel sounds " Bu Lighyear " " Can I go ou an pay " ? Or is language development an issue? Is he reversing pronouns? (he, she, his, her and sometimes even mom and dad) Is he not seeming to comprehend words like if you ask him to hand you the ball, does he hand you something else? Is he having a problem developing his language? Or, is he simply quiet and not talking much? These are all separate issues. Does he make eye contact? Does he go limp when you hug him, but hugs when he wants to? I could go on, but there are so many questions to be answered. You need to relax and get his diagnosis first. Then, you need to educate yourself on all possible treatments. But, truly, take it one step at a time. Col > > > > Welcome Viv!!

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Hi Viv, No, your son may NOT necessarily add in those behaviors. He may be mildly mercury poisoned, and only show the symptoms of mild poisoning. That said, you still will want to help him get rid of it. If you are going to a " regular " doc, don't expect them to know much about mercury poisoning, unless you are very very lucky. You will need to do a lot of research on your own to understand his issues and be a proactive mom to make sure he gets the treatments he needs. Yes, we all wish it would go away. My son is 26. His issues started at 4-6 months. I found out about the mercury connection when he was 20 after 20 years of searching for the " why " behind his disability. But there is lots of hope for someone so young--and for my son as well, who is a junior in college now. Barb new member > Hi, > I am new to the group.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Posted by: " HC " stratpat@... henrycoleman99 Fri Mar 30, 2007 7:01 pm (PST) Tell the 911 crew that the international vaccine program was initiated in 1994 by the United Nations, the Rockefeller foundation, WHO and World Bank, among others. That'll get them kicking. They already know this and talk about vaccines and autism all the time.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Barb, My oldest ASD child is 21. I also just finding out about these treatments, but got the impression that they weren't really helpful for older children/adults. Please tell me that assumption is wrong. Despite not having these treatments available for Damien, when he probably would have benefited the most from them, I still want to help him in any way I can.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Yes, I think the years of working through the development of more effective mercury chelation and the rebalancing of the body is showing us that improvement can happen at any age--not necessarily as much improvement, but certainly improvement to the quality of life, if not more! Just hope that your child is a good detoxer! That said, this is a long row to hoe for the older kids because they often have so many toxins stored in their bodies and obviously missed out on a lot of learning. However, my son tells me (on his computer keyboard but he is talking more all the time) that he is in MUCH LESS PAIN than he used to be because everything hurt for so long--his joints, his eyes, his stomach, you name it. SO much of that pain is gone as we have brought down the levels of many toxins in his body and healed a lot of things. That alone is worth all the work!

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Hello I just want to introduce myself as a new member in this group and hope my post is on the right place (first time posting in a -group). My name is Anne-Kathrin, I'm 27 years old, form germany and living in Bavaria. Sorry when my English is not so well, I'm better in reading than in writing (must be the practice^^) and especially the names of the essential oils are often not so easy to translate for me. But I'm lerning^^ I love all the different and extraordinary scents and try to collect rare and interesting essential oils, absolutes etc. (as long as I can pay for them ... as a student I don't have yet so much money for the really expensive ones) and the memories that I associate with them. I also like to make experimets and mix different essential oils together - for the aroma lamp or as parfum, also my experiences in this area are on a very low level till now^^. After spending my whole free-time today whith reading in as many og those interesting posts as possible and rummage in the archive I'm now really tired (by the way here the time is after midnight and I have to work tomorrow^^). So I have to say good night Special greetings to adam, my familyname is the same as yours, Gottschalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Hi , Thanks for posting! I am living in NC now and grew up in Bothell...near Woodinville. I am new to the list too. I am unfortunately having to buy the ridiculously expensive brew right now so can't wait for the warm weather to start brewing my own. I have had heavy metal toxicity for god knows how long and the tea does take it out via the digestive tract. If you didn't know, mercury tears up the gut. You may have to slow down OR I take a quality brand of chlorella to absorb it in the gut. I always do better with chlorella.

I am down here on the Hood Canal, southern most tip. Thanks for the kind commments. I sorely need to get more caught up on the site, but I just am hurting for the time to do so! Wish I had sheep and other fiber animals besides the rabbits, but they keep me happy, and help me get my hands on other fibers that I love to spin! I noticed the same think about drinking KT, getting headache. Well, last night was my first drink of my home brew, just a few ounces. Going to dip into the bottle again here in a few. But, as rare as headaches are for me any more, I do think that is what it was from. I'll let you know if I end up with one again today! I'd love to hear if this is something that anyone else has experienced. Kim http://www.blessedfarm.com http://www.Blessedfarm.etsy.com ~ my online fiber shop!

And around here, you can't buy Sterno (alcoho-and-gel fuel for buffet burners, and small portable stoves) in neighborhoods that have a large homeless population because they were finding that homeless alcoholics were eating the stuff.

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 Hi , Nice to meet you... I used to be into poetry but long ago gave it up. Like to read some of yours one day if you feel like sharing. I'm sorta new to the group, been around about 2 months maybe. I have PAT, IBS, hypoglycemia, polyneuropathy, depression, anxiety, PTSD, DID & migraines, I don't think I forgot anything... maybe I did... lol Oh yeah, my chronic stupid runny nose. I'm finally going to see an ENT friday. I went back to excersizing last week and it was so embarassing to keep wiping my nose all the time and the more heated I got the more it ran. How damn embarassing. It's such a stupid minor annoying thing. But I can't get rid of it no matter what I or my docs have tried. I gave up, it's been over a year now and no one can figure out what is causing it or whether it is related to anything else I have going on. So Friday morning I go to see the ear, nose & throat doc, hopefully he'll be able to stop the running... I've been in a pretty good spell pain wise lately, thank God. Hasn't always been that way. I work full time now for the past year, no choice. I happen to love my job tho so that helps. It isn't strenuous, I'm at the computer all day. I have a son, fiance and 2 furkids of the feline persuasion. Velcro & Hooter. Welcome! ~Melany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
