We must spread the word our kids can get better to other autism lists

[Guest guest]

List mates,

This following is a post on another list (mb12Valtrex list) where a mom,

Sally, asked me to stop talking about Dr. G. Just for background. Margo's

son got very sick because she was giving him too much vitamin A as per her

DAN doctor's prescription. His hair fell out and he was really ill. Margo

is a great mom who was trying to help her kid. My heart ached when I read

her words, " I am just so tired ... I am ready to just accept him for who he

is and stop all of this... I don't want to hurt him anymore " But none of

us can stop until our kids get better. We have all been there like Margo

and need to give parents a protocol that does something. We need to play it

forward. We are all here because someone helped us learn about .

But what it shows me is that we all need to be on lists we don't necessarily

agree with so moms learn about Dr. and Dr. Goldberg and . There

are too many kids getting dangerous care from doctors that don't follow up

with blood work and don't keep as close an eye on how these kids are doing.

So I need your help spreading the word that these kids are ill and can get

better with treatment. My answer to Sally is after her post below.

Thanks,

Marcia

I stand behind my post: Please, enough on Dr. Goldberg and his protocol.

There

is a separate group for that.

We are on this group to discuss a certain protocol, its related

elements,

and I would like to do that. In all fairness, there is another group for Dr.

Goldberg's protocol and I do not understand why you are not discussing this

on

that group. Comments like, " Supplements have the potential to be even more

dangerous than prescription medications " could possibly be trying to make

persons following this protocol to feel guilty and I think we all are trying

to

the best we can for our kids. We certainly have enough guilt piled up from

various sources without someone adding more.

Sally,

I'm not trying to make anyone feel guilty. We all have to trust our gut and

do what we think is best for our children. That what I did. I didn't

always do things right and sometimes it was ten steps back before we went

forward again. Similar to what Margo is experiencing now. It is so hard

and tiring to keep at this day in and day out. But Margo's son will be okay

once the vitamin A level evens out. This is not permanent, just a setback,

her post to this list probably saved many others from giving too much

vitamin A to their kids. Over time I have learned that whenever my kid got

a food he wasn't supposed to have I would have him drink lots of water and

increase his exercise. This helps speed up the system to get rid of bad

stuff faster.

The only reason my kid is better is because I was right place at the right

time to learn about Dr. G. My son is recovered; not sort of recovered, but

fully recovered and it wouldn't have happened without Dr. Goldberg's

protocol. My son is in college and living a full productive life. I want

that for all kids on the spectrum. I would love nothing more than to leave

the autism world and spend my days going out to lunch or reading a good

book. However, we all need to play it forward. I know how fortunate I am

and that's why I have a responsibility to help others, the way people helped

me.

The people on the list know Dr. G's protocol helps kids improve and get

better. Why would I stay on that list and only tell people who already know

about it? It's this list that needs to know about other choices. Stan

Kurtz own child was treated by Dr. Goldberg. Maybe that is why he is better

now.

Margo did what any of us do. She did what she thought was best to help her

child. I hope she stops beating herself up and doesn't stop fighting for

her son. She is a great mom who deeply loves her child and would do

anything to help him. We all make mistakes at times, but we have to make

decisions on the information we have at the time. That is what Margo did

and I hope she knows how much we all admire her for what she was trying to

do to help her son. Someone who works as hard as she has, should never

feel bad about doing what she thought was right at the time. I know she

needs to take a break from being doctor, teacher, protector and therapist

all rolled into one and just be mommy. But please Margo, never accept your

child can't be helped or get better. Hang in there and know we have all

been on the ledge where you are now. Never give up and call if I can help

in anyway.
