Guest guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 thank you any bit of hope helps the site that got me started is this one http://www.healing-arts.org/children/holmes.htm In Dr. Holme's study only 4% of children of the age of 5 were helped by chelation which makes me think start now shold i start the diet first, chelation first, does it matter 75% of kids 5 and under got better and that makes me think chelate now ask questions later the long term effects can be to devastating but Im not as experienced at this as you > > First, let me say there is hope and don't give up on your son or listen to mainstream doctors that tell you this is just a Neurologic disorder and that there isn't anything that can be done. My son was diagnosed about a 1 1/2 ago when he was 2 years 7mos. He was in his own world, didn't have any eye contact and never played with any of his toys except a musical toy and played it repetitively. I spent hours upon hours reading everything I could about Autism as I was like you and your wife and new nothing of Autism and this was our 1st child. My son, - is now 4 and is still non-verbal but has come a long way in his recovery. If there is any way you can get him into an ABA Program that is going to be very beneficial for him long term. My son entered a private school that was ABA Based and it is wonderful. About 2 weeks after his diagnosis on a Saturday I went cold turkey with the Gluten/Casein Free Diet. It was an extremely > difficult thing to do as my son was beside himself on the 1st and 2nd day but began eating his new food the 3rd day and by the end of the first week on the diet he started looking at us and over time seemed to become a little more aware of his environment and has awesome eye contact. If you are going to do this diet it is a long process and I would suggest finding a nutritionist who knows about this diet and Autism. We were on the diet for about 6 months before I found " Thoughtful House " in Austin, TX and initially went to them for the nutritionist and have stayed and working with a Dan Doctor. I highly recommend them. It's been a year since we've been with Thoughtful House and have been on supplementation and have recently started Chelation. > > Remember every child is different and unique with what's going on with their little bodies. I would do a lot of reading. There are good articles you can find on the Autism Reasearch Institute website as well as Generation Rescue. Also, try to think of this as a marathon not a sprint. I think back a year and a half ago and can see such progress we have made and know we still have a long ways to go but our children can get better. > > I hope this helps and wish you and your family all the best. > > Maureen > > > > > ________________________________ > From: apathy221 <apathy772@...> > > Sent: Wed, June 9, 2010 2:12:22 PM > Subject: [ ] First Timer > >  > My son Gerald is 2 years old he doesnt walk. He is non-verbal. He doesnt point at things or recognize me or my wife as his parents. I have suspected some type of PPD or Autism for just a few days.

He is my wife and I's only child and untill recently we were worried about having to put him in a home. In the videos one of the dads said whos going to take care of him when I die and I burst. Im not normally an emotional man but this is killing me. What do I do. Where do I start. We are seeing a neurologist, opthamologist, geneticist. We have gotten several MRI's and are scheduled for anohter one soon. We told the Neurologist today that we want all the blood urine and immunology tests done to check for heavy metal poisoning. We also asked to be refered to an allergist and a > nutrionalist to talk about the diets and chelation.

It took me telling the Doctors today, Hey maybe my son has a pdd for them to order an evaluation. I also said hey maybe this pdd is being caused by a heavy metal toxicicty or an allergy then they ordered the test's needed to find out. Why is it me a layman who has never even seen a child before in my life with autism or PDD has to diagnose his own child. These doctors and specialists see these children on a daily basis they know the signs what to look for and none of them untill I brought it up suggested it. I love my son. Im scared for my son.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 The problem is my son isnt diagnosed he only has me so far but the symptoms fit. even the symptoms of mercury toxcicty fit as stated on this site http://www.healing-arts.org/children/holmes.htm he has knee jerks esotropia Rashes, eczema sweaty feet and palms and a elevated heart rate he doesnt have dialted pupils or pathological reflexes but I just learned what estropia was today and had an rn check and she said yes its there besides all that though the neurologist has said he has congenital nystagmus & partial brain damage on his occipital lobe which i can verify the nystagmus but the occipital lobe damage is some spot on an mri that could or could not be true what i wonder is how on earth could my son have been introduced to mercury he was never given a thermisol injection hes never had dental work i just dont know where it could have come from but I ordered my sons neurologist today to test urine blood and hair for toxcicity my understanding is its rare but what if a child was born with no way to get rid of the mercury we all have it in our bodies but it isnt toxic unless in larger amounts what if my child just cant excrete it thats just a maybe like i said im new and still trying to figure all this out > > > > My son Gerald is 2 years old he doesnt walk.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 The chart shows that 89% of children ages 1-5 showed improvement w/ chelation, I don't see the 4% you mention. The article also says, " We have 6 patients, all 1 to 2 years of age who are finished with treatment by measurements of urinary and fecal mercury excretion. These 6 patients are " normal " by parent reports and repeat psychological testing. We have no children over the age of 2 who are finished with treatment. The rapidity of excretion seems to decrease markedly with each additional year of age " . That seems to indicate that starting earlier is better. If your join Recovery From Autism, they'll send you some guidelines about diet and supplements that your child will need should you choose to chelate. apathy221 wrote: > > thank you any bit of hope helps the site that got me started is this one > > http://www.healing-arts.org/children/holmes.htm > > In Dr. Holme's study only 4% of children of the age of 5 were helped > by chelation which makes me think start now shold i start the diet > first, chelation first, does it matter 75% of kids 5 and under got > better and that makes me think chelate now ask questions later the > long term effects can be to devastating but Im not as experienced at > this as you > > > > > > First, let me say there is hope and don't give up on your son or > listen to mainstream doctors that tell you this is just a Neurologic > disorder and that there isn't anything that can be done. My son was > diagnosed about a 1 1/2 ago when he was 2 years 7mos. He was in his > own world, didn't have any eye contact and never played with any of > his toys except a musical toy and played it repetitively. I spent > hours upon hours reading everything I could about Autism as I was like > you and your wife and new nothing of Autism and this was our 1st > child. My son, - is now 4 and is still non-verbal but has > come a long way in his recovery. If there is any way you can get him > into an ABA Program that is going to be very beneficial for him long > term. My son entered a private school that was ABA Based and it is > wonderful. About 2 weeks after his diagnosis on a Saturday I went > cold turkey with the Gluten/Casein Free Diet. It was an extremely > > difficult thing to do as my son was beside himself on the 1st and > 2nd day but began eating his new food the 3rd day and by the end of > the first week on the diet he started looking at us and over time > seemed to become a little more aware of his environment and has > awesome eye contact. If you are going to do this diet it is a long > process and I would suggest finding a nutritionist who knows about > this diet and Autism. We were on the diet for about 6 months before > I found " Thoughtful House " in Austin, TX and initially went to them > for the nutritionist and have stayed and working with a Dan Doctor. I > highly recommend them. It's been a year since we've been with > Thoughtful House and have been on supplementation and have recently > started Chelation. > > > > Remember every child is different and unique with what's going on > with their little bodies. I would do a lot of reading. There are > good articles you can find on the Autism Reasearch Institute website > as well as Generation Rescue. Also, try to think of this as a > marathon not a sprint. I think back a year and a half ago and can see > such progress we have made and know we still have a long ways to go > but our children can get better. > > > > I hope this helps and wish you and your family all the best. > > > > Maureen > > > > > > > > > > ________________________________ > > From: apathy221 <apathy772@...> > > > <mailto: %40> > > Sent: Wed, June 9, 2010 2:12:22 PM > > Subject: [ ] First Timer > > > >  > > My son Gerald is 2 years old he doesnt walk.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Does his mother have " silver " fillings? That's a possible source of mercury toxicity according to some researchers.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 I personally started with the diet b/c I thought it was something I could do on my own initially and didn't think it would be harmful to try on my own.  Then I found an ABA Program. In your readings you will find that many of our children have GI issues and those need to be addressed before starting chelation. I personally did not think we had any GI issues b/c they weren't severe but in time I found that my son does it's just not real bad. Just after his 3rd birthday my son's behavior became very aggressive and extremely irritable at things that never bothered him before. I can remember sitting in his room crying and saying is this what Autism is and how am I going to deal with this for a lifetime. Fortunately, there was a reason for his behavior and it was because he was yeasty and constipated. I wouldn't have known this if I hadn't seen a Dan doctor who ran some initial urine and fecal test and found through testing that he was yeasty. Once we treated his yeast his behavior went back to what it was. Many people have opinions about Dan doctors but you have to find out what is right for you and your situation. You will find that you will watch and know your child and their behavior more than a typical parent because you are always watching for changes and what might be going on because many of our children can't tell us and it can be very frustrating but once you understand your child it does become a little easier. ________________________________ From: apathy221 <apathy772@...> Sent: Wed, June 9, 2010 2:47:02 PM Subject: [ ] Re: First Timer  thank you any bit of hope helps the site that got me started is this one http://www.healing-arts.org/children/holmes.htm In Dr. Holme's study only 4% of children of the age of 5 were helped by chelation which makes me think start now shold i start the diet first, chelation first, does it matter 75% of kids 5 and under got better and that makes me think chelate now ask questions later the long term effects can be to devastating but Im not as experienced at this as you > > First, let me say there is hope and don't give up on your son or listen to mainstream doctors that tell you this is just a Neurologic disorder and that there isn't anything that can be done. My son was diagnosed about a 1 1/2 ago when he was 2 years 7mos. He was in his own world, didn't have any eye contact and never played with any of his toys except a musical toy and played it repetitively. I spent hours upon hours reading everything I could about Autism as I was like you and your wife and new nothing of Autism and this was our 1st child. My son, - is now 4 and is still non-verbal but has come a long way in his recovery. If there is any way you can get him into an ABA Program that is going to be very beneficial for him long term. My son entered a private school that was ABA Based and it is wonderful. About 2 weeks after his diagnosis on a Saturday I went cold turkey with the Gluten/Casein Free Diet. It was an extremely > difficult thing to do as my son was beside himself on the 1st and 2nd day but began eating his new food the 3rd day and by the end of the first week on the diet he started looking at us and over time seemed to become a little more aware of his environment and has awesome eye contact. If you are going to do this diet it is a long process and I would suggest finding a nutritionist who knows about this diet and Autism. We were on the diet for about 6 months before I found " Thoughtful House " in Austin, TX and initially went to them for the nutritionist and have stayed and working with a Dan Doctor. I highly recommend them. It's been a year since we've been with Thoughtful House and have been on supplementation and have recently started Chelation. > > Remember every child is different and unique with what's going on with their little bodies. I would do a lot of reading. There are good articles you can find on the Autism Reasearch Institute website as well as Generation Rescue. Also, try to think of this as a marathon not a sprint. I think back a year and a half ago and can see such progress we have made and know we still have a long ways to go but our children can get better. > > I hope this helps and wish you and your family all the best. > > Maureen > > > > > ________________________________ > From: apathy221 <apathy772@...> > > Sent: Wed, June 9, 2010 2:12:22 PM > Subject: [ ] First Timer > >  > My son Gerald is 2 years old he doesnt walk.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Please reconsider seeing a DAN dr. I was fortunate enough to find these groups before I could get in to see one. It seems their chelation methods are very harmful to our children. Look into Hall Cutler chelation protocol. It respects the half life of the chelator. You give small frequent doses to move the metals out. Join the Recovery from Autism group here on . Tons of information on it. Start with a hair test to see if he is indeed toxic and go from there. > > My son Gerald is 2 years old he doesnt walk. He is non-verbal. He doesnt point at things or recognize me or my wife as his parents. I have suspected some type of PPD or Autism for just a few days. Im just discovering the diets chelation and many other Biomedical Interventions that can be done. Untill I saw the videos on Generation Rescues website I thought there was no hope. He is my wife and I's only child and untill recently we were worried about having to put him in a home. In the videos one of the dads said whos going to take care of him when I die and I burst. Im not normally an emotional man but this is killing me. What do I do. Where do I start. We are seeing a neurologist, opthamologist, geneticist. We have gotten several MRI's and are scheduled for anohter one soon. We told the Neurologist today that we want all the blood urine and immunology tests done to check for heavy metal poisoning. We also asked to be refered to an allergist and a nutrionalist to talk about the diets and chelation. When we mentioned a D.A.N. doctor the neurologist's face changed he immediatly ordered a bunch of tests and asked us if we had appts. to see this doctor and made sure bluntly to tell us it would come out of our pockets. It seemed strange to me like he was scared we could fix our son then these 10's of thousands of dollar tests he runs wouldnt be guranteed anymore. I dont know but it seems to me that these doctors dont actually care about the children thats like saying a mechanic cares about the car hes repairing they just want the insurance companies money and the longer they keep paying the longer they will withold any true diagnosis. Im sorry if I seem to ramble or I dont use the best grammar & punctuation Im trying. My son is two years and 4 months old hes had the same symptoms for over a year. He fixates on toys, doesnt point, no eye contact, (he also has nystagmus so we thought that was why he had no eye contact) he doesnt recognize us, our voices, our faces, doesnt talk, walk, crawl, situp on his own, and untill recently we honestly felt hopeless. It took me telling the Doctors today, Hey maybe my son has a pdd for them to order an evaluation. I also said hey maybe this pdd is being caused by a heavy metal toxicicty or an allergy then they ordered the test's needed to find out. Why is it me a layman who has never even seen a child before in my life with autism or PDD has to diagnose his own child. These doctors and specialists see these children on a daily basis they know the signs what to look for and none of them untill I brought it up suggested it. I love my son. Im scared for my son. I want to know my son will be ok after I die. Can anyone give me some hope? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 There is hope. One thing you need to know for sure is that there is a lot of hope. I do agree with the doctor about being wary of DAN! doctors and their testing, their fees and their protocols. Although they differ from mainstream docs in the sense that they say they can/want to cure your child, many of their practices can be risky and damaging. It is wonderful to have someone offering you a light at the end of the tunnel, but I caution you to do your research before agreeing to anything. I suggest you read about Andy Culter and buy/obtain a book of his called Amalgam Illnesses. It will talk about a safe way to chelate heavy metals and information on interpreting a hair test from Doctor's Data called Hair Elements. Most of us follow his recommendations regarding chelation. I would worry about mitochondrial disorders (mitochondria in cells unable to turn sugar and oxygen in to energy) if your child isn't walking. Did he ever crawl? There are also inborn errors of metabolism that should be ruled out. These are all tests that can be done by these doctors you are seeing right now. Are you telling me you have only been referred to specialist NOW? How frustrating. I honestly don't think they want your child to stay ill to collect more money from your insurance company, I just think they are woefully incompetent to deal with issues involving environmental exposure that challenge their schooling and long held beliefs. I guess I have a lot of questions about your child's behavior/diet/history. At this point, I want to welcome you and tell you to feel free to ask a lot of questions.

He fixates on toys, doesnt point, no eye contact, (he also has nystagmus so we thought that was why he had no eye contact) he doesnt recognize us, our voices, our faces, doesnt talk, walk, crawl, situp on his own, and untill recently we honestly felt hopeless. It took me telling the Doctors today, Hey maybe my son has a pdd for them to order an evaluation. I also said hey maybe this pdd is being caused by a heavy metal toxicicty or an allergy then they ordered the test's needed to find out. Why is it me a layman who has never even seen a child before in my life with autism or PDD has to diagnose his own child. These doctors and specialists see these children on a daily basis they know the signs what to look for and none of them untill I brought it up suggested it. I love my son. Im scared for my son. I want to know my son will be ok after I die. Can anyone give me some hope? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 What state do you live in and what services is your boy getting? > > > > My son Gerald is 2 years old he doesnt walk. He is non-verbal. He doesnt point at things or recognize me or my wife as his parents. I have suspected some type of PPD or Autism for just a few days. Im just discovering the diets chelation and many other Biomedical Interventions that can be done. Untill I saw the videos on Generation Rescues website I thought there was no hope. He is my wife and I's only child and untill recently we were worried about having to put him in a home. In the videos one of the dads said whos going to take care of him when I die and I burst. Im not normally an emotional man but this is killing me. What do I do. Where do I start. We are seeing a neurologist, opthamologist, geneticist. We have gotten several MRI's and are scheduled for anohter one soon. We told the Neurologist today that we want all the blood urine and immunology tests done to check for heavy metal poisoning. We also asked to be refered to an allergist and a nutrionalist to talk about the diets and chelation. When we mentioned a D.A.N. doctor the neurologist's face changed he immediatly ordered a bunch of tests and asked us if we had appts. to see this doctor and made sure bluntly to tell us it would come out of our pockets. It seemed strange to me like he was scared we could fix our son then these 10's of thousands of dollar tests he runs wouldnt be guranteed anymore. I dont know but it seems to me that these doctors dont actually care about the children thats like saying a mechanic cares about the car hes repairing they just want the insurance companies money and the longer they keep paying the longer they will withold any true diagnosis.

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Has your child been vaccinated? Di your wife have vaccines (including flu shot) while pregnant? www.danasview.net/metals provides info on sources of exposure. S S Re: First Timer Posted by: " apathy221 " apathy772@... apathy221 Wed Jun 9, 2010 1:43 pm (PDT) mistake on my part she had silver fillings when she was 5 yrs old she hasnt had a silver filling since she has had permanent teeth and that mercury would have had to be excreted by now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 That's the official myth. They reduced the mercury (in some of the vaccines). When they did that they increased the aluminum, which is also toxic. Flu shot still has lots of mercury and they're really pushing it. H1N1 also had/has mercury. S S Re: First Timer Posted by: " apathy221 " apathy772@... apathy221 Wed Jun 9, 2010 1:53 pm (PDT) New question I just read a recent post I thought all vaccines made after 2002 were now thermisol free which would lead me to think they were also mercury free or am I wrong we have had all of our sons vaccines done before we knew anything about this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 >>I love my son. Im scared for my son. I want to know my son will be ok after I die. Can anyone give me some hope? When my son was 3, two separate pediatric neurologists gave him the diagnosis of " classic Kanner's autism " , severe, low functioning. They told me he would never talk or even acknowledge my existance, and to put him in an institution, enjoy my other children, and get on with my life. I started biomedical instead [and stopped taking him to doctors]. Today he is 14 and basically recovered. He is no longer autistic, he talks, he reads, he is social with his siblings and other children and adults, he needs no special diets, and only one supplement [he needed probably 50 or more separate supplements in the past, but only needs one now]. I suspect in about 3-4 months, he will be finished with the last supplement. Because he was so severely damaged by vaccinations, he is still working to catch up, so he is not yet age-appropriate. However, my husband and I had the goal that he would need no diets or supplements, so that when we are dead and gone, he would have no chance of regression. We are 99% to our goal. Keep going, you can recover your child, without a doctor. I need to update this page, but here is my son's story http://www.danasview.net/myson.htm Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
