Update on my son using nids protocol

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

I am still new to actually using this protocol for my son, but have

known about it for a couple of years. My son is 8 yrs. old. He is

somewhat verbal but not conversational. He is on diflucan and

valtrex.

Some positives I have noted: He is much more with it. He is

talking in longer phrases. Saturday the in-home-trainer came to

work with him. She had a huge stack of flash cards. She was only

going to do a certain amount, but my son only saw a huge stack of

cards. During the middle of the flash cards he said " Sharon, how

many more? " I could not believe it. He very rarely asks questions.

Only to ask where a video is. Also, the teacher last week after he

finished a worksheet gave him a tiny piece of a peppermint. He

said " is that all? "

I did not tell the in-home-trainer about going to Dr. or the

teacher because I wanted an unbiased opinion of him. I did tell the

in-home-trainer after she said how well he is doing lately about

nids.

I am very happy with my son's progress. I hope it continues. It is

very subtle, but definately progress. Plus he is at a good school

now, and he has a great in-home-trainer that works with the school.

The only negative I noticed was a very mild die off the first week

on diflucan. He was giggly more tantrums and less focused. He just

started the valtrex and I don't think he has been on it long enough

for negatives or positives.

Also, I want to say that I really like Dr. and all of his

staff. They are very nice.
