Colleen,

I think that we are getting close to being done with therapy. We are working on

some hand stuff but the improvements we are noticing with biomed..... therapy

cannot fix, at least it hasn't so far.

The improvements we saw last week with biomed had to do with cognitive

awareness, focus, attention, whole body energy, alertness, attention, etc.

Except for the speech clarity and quickness, the improvements have not been a

'skill' improvement but a more how 'up/fast/atttentive/'withit/ you are..... is

this comprehendable in the least?

Janice,

Excellent education as usual. He will be back. Charlie is right on today!

Last night he said Linus and Charlie Brown outside... I about freaked

because last week he could barley say his name, Charlie. 5 words! In stead

of saying papa to grandpa he said grandpa today right after ST.

Another note, I must say, when I started back in August, I remember reading

your posts on Mark in Therapy. Now, I am reading more on biomed and noticing

less on therapy and even larger striedes in biomed.

Something to be said for your progress! A nice combo.

Does that mean you are done with NACD - or is that a lifetime one with you? I

know is just 6, but the idea that NACD might not be there through all his

schooling - whether he normalizes or not scares me.

Thanks for your reply to Mercury Chelation - this is all helping so much. I am

so insipired by your chelation story Janice, that is amazing for a 13 year old

from what I have read. Good luck with the rest of the rounds.

I don't consider NACD a life-time thing. I think you can stop and still do

'revisit evals' once a year or so if you wish. I can see us scaling back and

slowly declining all therapy soon. The hands are not quite done but when they

are....... I would like to reclaim my life without dyspraxia whatever that is!

(do I even know now?) It will be time then for me to get therapy.....

psychotherapy!

We will focus completely on academics (maybe a math tutor to really get those

skills to a superior level) and no more therapy! It's been a long time coming.

I am crossing my fingers that the NT boy comes back to us after this weekend. I

have grown fond of watching the maturity unfold. It's quite fun.

We are thinking of doing the Cutler protocol - lead is definitely an issue

here - but wondering where to get 25mg DMSA mailorder (we are in the UK) - also

would we need a script?. Your post was great in giving me insight into wht to

expect each day. Any tips on how to do night dosing - my son at 12 still can't

swallow pills. Any views on which DMSA tastes the least awful. Thanks

Hi ,

The only place I know of to get DMSA mail order is from www.vrp.com (Vitamin

Research Products). They sell it in small 25 mg, 50mg or 100mg capsules. For

your son, I would dose no more than 25-50 mg for your son.

If he can't swallow pills, open the contents of the capsule into about 1/2 shot

glass full of juice (2-3 tsp is fine). The best juice to mask the taste is

pineapple or really citrus-like fruit juices. Use a toothpick to mix it up.

You do not need a script for DMSA or ALA.

I would suggest that on the nights you are chelating, you sleep in the same room

as your son. My husband or I would take her bed and then she would crash in our

room on the bigger bed. That way, whoever had to get up didn't wake up the

other, and we didn't have to even get out of bed.

Keep the juice on your nighstand and your little cup. Keep the pills right there

too. Set the alarm for when you have to get up, open the pills into the juice,

gently rouse your son awake, have him swallow the juice and go back to bed. You

don't even need more than a night light and you can get back to sleep pretty

quickly this way.

I used to keep everything downstairs, wake up, go down there, mix it up, walk

back upstairs, go in her room, give it to her, go back downstairs to put it away

and then go back to bed. By then, I was awake and couldn't get back to bed.

Trust me, the first option is so much easier!

Also, if you use this schedule : Friday 4pm, 7pm, 11pm, 3am, 7am, 10am, 1pm,

4pm and over until Monday 7 am, you only have to get up once during the night.

Good luck!

Tyler is not progressing at all right now, and I'm at my wits end

waiting for his first evaluation and program from NACD. It would be

less stressful if I knew for sure this story has a happy ending. You

give me hope, Janice!

You hang tough . I know kids who screeched as he did whose

parents did not do half of what you are doing and are well. I think

when you catch it really early they may not need as much so he may

need time off biomed to level out and time on therapy to receive

messages his brain missed.

You know..... you just cannot predict happy endings. My neighbour has the most

lovely of daughters. I've watched her grow and thrive and go to University to

become a nurse. She is sweet, angelic, elegant and kind..... a true " winner " .

She is the daughter that we all hope our girls grow into.... just a really nice

girl.

This summer I had not seen her around and had assumed that she had gotten her

own place..... Wrong. She was in the hospital for anorexia.

So......... this beautiful, wonderful kid has been in the hospital for over 6-7

months now. She should have had everything and now she has this aweful disease.

You simply cannot predict what is lying in wait...... just around the corner for

ALL of our children. We just got our " heads up " at a younger age!

Because we got this heads up..... our children are really protected by us and

perhaps that is a good thing. Perhaps had we not had this experience, some

other monster would have found our kids. I know that I dyspraxia is my foe but

it has truly made me aware of what is important in life and I have had to really

bond with my children. We have had to come together as a family in a way that

no one else can comprehend or comes even close to capturing. In a sense, this

experience has made us all better people. My daughter is nicer and cares about

the important things (she is not shallow or silly like other girls her age) and

my son works his tail off defeating dyspraxia!

They are not spoiled, not petulant and not bratty (like many kids their age). I

think this is because they know what is important. Dyspraxia has given us all

the wake-up call that we needed to be better people in our life! I could have

used an easier method to get this lesson..... but I must see what this

experience has done for us..... it has not been all bad.

Hi Patty,

I'm curious if you figured out whether you were a slow or fast liver

phase one and two according to Cutler's protocol. As well, did you

check sulfur and cysteine levels? I can't decide...I hate to do more

testing and think all I need to do is keep detoxing.

Yet, a lot of people on his forum are doing the testing since it

follows the protocol. Part of me thinks it doesn't matter and that I

can still eat what I want as long as it's healthy. Sometimes though it

concerns me the way they talk about how eating a ton of broccoli,

cauliflower, eggs and berries can actually make your symptoms worse if

you have sulfation issues. Since that's pretty much what I eat, I

wonder if that's why I feel so lousy. Did you do the testing?

Thanks. Love, PH

Hi PH,

I did figure out which one I was, but it was so long ago, I don't

remember!

I never did check my sulfur and cysteine levels. I think I had

everything pretty well figured out based on my symptoms, and though I

wanted to get testing,I just decided to keep detoxing and letting my

body heal on its own. I guess it worked pretty well, as I have

healed. I have no regrets in my choice to follow this path.

Why don't you do some self testing? I would suggest cutting out some

of the foods that would be aggravating to you if you have sulfation

issues, and just see how you feel. You may be surprised to find out

something about yourself. Just remember how you thought all those

green juices were good for you because they are supposed to be, but

in truth, they were causing your brain fog! The same could apply to

these other foods if there is indeed a sulfation issue. The only way

to know for sure is testing, or self-experimentation with your diet.

How do you do with raw garlic?

Let me know what you find out.

Hugs,

Patty
